Repeals provisions authorizing the establishment of charter schools in Boone County

HB 2500 repeals Missouri's current charter school laws and replaces them with new restrictions on where charter schools may operate statewide. The bill limits charter schools to specific districts - such as unaccredited districts, large urban areas (>350,000 population), or districts with prolonged provisional accreditation - and restricts enrollment in larger districts to 35% of total students. It also changes who can sponsor charters, allowing only school boards, certain colleges, or the Missouri charter commission, while removing previous exceptions for counties like Boone. The bill does not specifically target Boone County (the title is misleading), as the changes apply uniformly across all Missouri school districts.
