Introduced Text

Establishes a rating system for community school sponsors and operators in Ohio.

The Charter School Sponsor and Operator Rating Act creates a rating system for entities that sponsor or operate community schools in Ohio. The Department of Education and Workforce will evaluate and rate sponsors and operators annually based on academic performance, adherence to quality practices, and compliance with laws and rules. Ratings range from "exemplary" to "poor," with corresponding descriptors. Entities with higher ratings receive incentives, while those with lower ratings face restrictions on sponsoring new schools and may have their sponsorship authority revoked.
