A 4833 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Disallows an application for a charter school to be approved if a state monitor or fiscal monitor is not operating in such school district

This bill (A 4833) requires that a state or fiscal monitor must be actively operating in a school district before any new charter school application can be approved. It directly affects school districts seeking to establish new charter schools, as they must first have an oversight official (either a state monitor or fiscal monitor) in place. The key provision amends education law to add a new requirement: charter school applications are disallowed if no such monitor is operating in the district. This creates a concrete condition for approval, focusing on district oversight rather than other factors like student enrollment percentages.
