Oklahoma HB2153 modifies charter school enrollment rules, including virtual charter schools. It mandates that virtual charter schools pre-enroll students whose parents express intent to enroll. The State Department of Education must notify the Legislature and Governor if the IT infrastructure is inadequate. Charter schools cannot limit admission based on ethnicity, national origin, gender, income level, disabling condition, proficiency in English, measures of achievement, aptitude, or athletic ability. The Statewide Charter School Board cannot restrict student enrollment numbers.
