2003 House Bill 4148

House Roll Call 31: The substitute was not adopted

To replace the previous version of the bill with one which would require charter schools to accept all students who live in the school district where it is located, just like regular public schools. Under current law, if there are more students who want to attend than there is space available, pupils are selected through a random selection process. The substitute would also strip out all the provisions of the bill which increase the number of charters and which revise other regulations on charters.
