Compliance Checklists
Board staff has created checklists to assist charter holders in conducting a self check of compliance. Charter holders are advised that these checklists are intended to serve as one tool in maintaining compliance. These checklists and any accompanying guidance should not be considered legal advice. Charter holders should consult their own legal counsel for further information and advice.
Enrollment
On May 17, 2024, Board staff provided a sample enrollment packet to charter operators. Board staff created the document with the guidance of legal counsel. These documents are not obligatory for charter holders to use, but rather are provided as informative resources. Although a charter holder is required to utilize legally compliant documents, charter holders are under no obligation to use the documents found below, either in part or in full.
Fingerprinting
Education Service Provider
By September 1 of each year, the Board’s rules require each charter holder to notify the Board as to whether it has an agreement or contract with an education service provider for the current year. Even if a charter holder does not have such an agreement or contract, it is required to submit the form indicating this. For those that have such an arrangement, the rules require the charter holder to provide certain information to the Board.
Mandatory Reporting
The Board’s rules require a charter holder to report to the Board within 10 business days of receipt or occurrence certain items, such as tax liens and default notices, that could indicate there might be some financial stress on the organization. To assist charter holders in complying with the rule’s requirements, the Board has developed a form (see below) that allows the charter holder to easily submit the required information to the Board and has provided answers to frequently asked questions.
Please click on the above link to access the form and "Download", save the document, and then open the saved document to complete form.
Website Link to Performance Dashboards
The Board’s rules require each charter school to conspicuously and permanently post a link on its website to the charter school’s academic performance dashboard and the charter holder’s financial and operational performance dashboards on the Board’s website. New schools must conspicuously post the link by September 1 of their first year of operation. To assist schools in complying with this requirement, a file is included below that contains the link to each charter holder’s “Performance” tab in ASBCS Online, and the Board has provided answers to frequently asked questions.
