2003 House Bill 4148 ↩
House Roll Call 32:
The amendment was not adopted
To require that one-third of the fee collected by an institution authorizing charter schools be paid to the Department of Education to expand its supervision of charters. Under current law, an institution authorizing a charter school may collect a three-percent fee from the school's total school aid payments to cover its administrative expenses. The amendment would also apply more extensive charter school regulations and oversight provisions, similar to those contained in 2001-2002 House Bill 4800, and in the 2002 "McPherson Commission" recommendations on charter schools.
