Ten of Duval County’s 40 charter schools are now working to improve their operations after receiving “D” or “F” grades from the state.
When charter schools get low grades, state law dictates they turn in a plan to their sponsor, – in this case, Duval County Public Schools, – with a roadmap of how to get the school performing well again.
“The governing board for the charter school is established by the bylaws,” Hays said. “That’s the group that ultimately has the control and the responsibility for the financial management, for the academic outcomes. The district itself does not actually manage any of that because we are required by law to rely on the charter schools governing board to manage those operations.”
“When a traditional school gets a grade of a D or an F, there are specific steps that they have to take in order to turn that school around,” Hershey said. “Whereas, a charter school can earn a grade of D, and just stay there. There is no timeline for that to move to a C.” While the goals and benchmarks are largely the same, there are fewer rules and methods of accountability for charter schools than traditional schools, which Hershey said presents a fundamental problem.
