Complete·6/8/26

Louisiana HB386 amends charter school funding to allow certain charter schools to act as their own local education agency for funding purposes.

Louisiana HB386 amends charter school funding provisions to allow Type 1, Type 3, and Type 3B charter schools to be considered their own local education agency for funding purposes, subject to local school board approval. This change aligns these charter schools with Type 4 charter schools, which already have this designation. The bill retains the requirement for Type 2 and Type 5 charter schools to be considered the local education agency for funding purposes.
