Eligibility for Charter School Capital Outlay

PURPOSE:

To revise eligibility requirements for charter school capital outlay to conform to statutory revisions and clarify additional eligibility requirements provided for in law.

SUMMARY:

In the 2016 legislative session, section 1013.62, F.S., was amended to change the eligibility criteria for capital outlay from three years of school operation to two and clarified that evidence of a financial emergency condition would render an applicant ineligible. In addition to the changes above, the proposed rule also: Specifies thresholds for feeder patterns; establishes deadlines for providing evidence of SACS accreditation; and determines what constitutes failure to meet satisfactory student achievement for purposes of receiving capital outlay. The amendment incorporates IEPC-CO1, the official application necessary to request capital outlay.
