The Missouri Charter Public School Commission requires the boards of all sponsored schools to acknowledge closure assurance. See the statement found on MCPSC's website and links to resources below for review. "While this report references procedures related to charter revocation, it is provided as a standard requirement to ensure all schools are prepared for a range of scenarios. In the event of revocation of a charter by MCPSC, schools must ensure their board is aware of and prepared for the closure process. This process is guided by a commitment to minimize disruption to students’ education, to protect the public funds generated for educating students, and to preserve assets acquired through operation of the charter school. The closure process includes the Commission sending a letter informing parents of the decision, the rationale, and the process available to parents to choose a new school for their children." |
