Charter School Performance Public Hearing, Monday 4 Oct 2021 Please consider testifying at the public hearing to reinforce the importance of including information relevant to parents and public and including standards that better represent whether charters serve all students. You must register to participate in the public hearing (see link) and to testify (see question on the registration form).
Testimony will be limited to three minutes per speaker. The hearing will conclude once all who have registered have been given the opportunity to comment. Why the Charter School Performance Framework (CSPF) is important TEA is required by statute to create a Charter School Performance Framework (CSPF) that rates charter school performance using indicators in three areas: Academic, Financial, and Operations. TEA is updating the CSPF using 2020 data and taking comments from the public that are due on October 4, 2021. TEA uses the CSPF ratings for a variety of important determination including, oversight, eligibility for charter expansion amendment, charter renewal, non-renewal, and revocation. A charter school rated “high quality” on the CSPF is given preferential treatment. Concerns have been raised that the indicators used in the CSPR do not provide a comprehensive picture of charter performance. For example, the indicators do not measure whether charter schools underserve English Learners or students with special needs.
