Charter Renewal Process
Kristin Moody shared the timeline and overview of the charter renewal process. Kristin will work as a consultant to ensure that we are able to submit a strong charter renewal. The approval will primarily report on charter accountability (assessment scores, attendance, culture data, etc) and innovative programs (farm, IB, etc). There are some new requirements given shift to SESE. In January, APS will go over updated application with Dr. Pullen and leadership team. Renewal is due in August. We aim to approve at the June Board meeting. The draft will go through the committee likely in May.
