Charter schools; revoke charter if school remains "D" or "F" rated for longer than two consecutive years.

SB 2489 would require Mississippi charter schools rated "D" or "F" under the state's accreditation system for two consecutive years to have their charters revoked or not renewed. This directly affects charter schools with sustained low performance, as the bill mandates automatic action by state education officials based solely on these accreditation ratings. The key mechanism is linking the existing school rating system to charter renewal decisions, eliminating discretion for repeated low ratings. The bill died in committee in February 2026 and was never enacted.
