Allowing multiple charter schools under one authorization would allow a governing body to convert all of its schools into charters with no local accountability. Expands innovation network charter reach. By allowing innovation network charter schools to operate beyond their original district boundaries, they would be subject to even less local oversight. Imposes financial penalties on districts for reporting failures. Schools late in meeting reporting requirements would have 25% of their financial support withheld by the state. Enables liquidated damages if buildings aren’t transferred fast enough. If it takes a school district more than 10 days to transfer ownership of a building under the $1 law, the charter can request damages of $10,000/day beyond the 10 days. SGO caps should not be eliminated. This policy prioritizes pre-tax vouchers for the wealthy at the expense https://actionnetwork.org/letters/oppose-sb239variouseducationmatters
