4 Be It Enacted by the Legislature of the State of Idaho:
5 SECTION 1. That Section 33-5209, Idaho Code, be, and the same is hereby
6 amended to read as follows:
7 33-5209. TIME LIMITS -- REVOCATION -- APPEAL. (1) A charter granted pur-

10 original granting authority. Each renewal shall be valid for a period not to
11 exceed five (5) years. A material revision of the provisions of the charter
12 petition may be made only with the approval of the authority which granted the
13 charter.
14 (2) A charter may be revoked by the original granting authority if the
15 authority finds that the charter school has done any of the following:
16 (a) Committed a material violation of any condition, standard or proce-
17 dure set forth in the charter petition;
18 (b) Failed to substantially meet any of the student educational standards
19 identified in the charter petition;
20 (c) Failed to meet generally accepted accounting standards of fiscal man-
21 agement;
22 (d) Failed to submit required reports to the authority which authorized
23 the charter; or
24 (e) Violated any provision of law.
25 (3) A decision to revoke, or not to renew, or not to approve a revision
26 of a charter may be appealed directly to the state board of education. The
27 state board shall essentially follow the procedure as provided in section
28 33-5207, Idaho Code.
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS 11081
The purpose of this legislation is to permit an appeal to the
State Board if the local board denies a revision of the charter.
When first drafted it was not contemplated that a charter school
might want to change their grade configuration or other changes.
In the event of a denial of this request for a revision this
legislation would allow for an appeal.
FISCAL IMPACT
No fiscal impact.
