Ultimately the state Board may become the sponsor. If the charter is terminated, the sponsor must notify the charter's governing body at least 60 days before the proposed effective date of termination. The governing body may request a hearing by the sponsor and may appeal its decision. If the school board is the sponsor the appeal is to the state Board of Education. If the state Board is the sponsor, the appeal is to the circuit court in Marion County.
Enrollment is voluntary.
Any student living in the district in which the charter is located may enroll. If applications from resident students exceed the school's capacity by program, class, grade level or building capacity, the charter must select students through an equitable lottery process. However, the resident school district of a special education student is responsible for providing any required special education and related services. Staff assignment to a public charter school is voluntary. The charter school's governing body controls employee hiring.
