Compliance with the condition shall commence no later than the school year following the fiscal year that the waiver was granted and shall continue for each subsequent school year until the condition is satisfied.(c) Compliance with the condition set forth in subdivision (b) shall be verified in the report of the annual audit of the charter school for each fiscal year in which it is required to maintain additional time pursuant to subdivision (b).

Sec. 7801) to the extent the affected charter school is the restructured portion of a divided charter school pursuant to Section 47654.(c) Notwithstanding Section 33050 or any other law, the state board shall not waive the restrictions described in this section.(d) This section shall remain in effect only until January 1, 2026, and as of that date is repealed.(Amended by Stats. 2021, Ch. 44, Sec. 59.
