An Act relative to charter school fiscal impact and accountability

HD 827 modifies charter school funding rules for school districts that move out of the lowest 10% for per-pupil spending. It sets a 9% spending cap for these districts unless they previously exceeded 9%, in which case the cap remains at their prior spending level. The bill also prohibits new charter seats from districts that left the lowest 10% with spending above 9%, requires the state to calculate and cover tuition owed for affected students, and adds new requirements for charter approvals and renewals based on enrollment and financial impact. These changes primarily affect school districts sending students to charter schools and the state education department managing charter school oversight.
