Jasper County Council can allocate local funds to eligible charter schools on a per-pupil basis.
The bill allows the Jasper County Council to provide local funds to charter schools in the county that meet specific criteria. These schools must offer in-person instruction, have at least 60% of their students classified as economically disadvantaged, be within 35 miles of a federal military installation, have been operating for at least five years, and be in good financial standing. The funds can come from any county revenue source, including those from Fee-in-Lieu of Taxes agreements. The council has the discretion to designate and allocate these funds.
