Corbett Charter Renewal & 90 Days?

What is the renewal process for charter schools? What information is taken into consideration by the district in making a renewal decision?

The law stipulates that the renewal should be based on the review of the charter school’s annual performance reports, annual audit of accounts and annual site visit and any other information mutually agreed upon by the public charter school and the sponsor.

* The Corbett School Board APPROVED the renewal of the Charter on January 22, 2014. ( Read here for more )
