Relating generally to public charter schools

SB 749 updates West Virginia's public charter school laws to clarify governance, funding, and student enrollment rules. It prohibits charter schools from charging full tuition (allowing only standard fees for activities or part-time programs), authorizes new "high-risk population" charters for students like those in juvenile justice or with severe disciplinary issues, and requires county school districts to track students returning to district schools after leaving a charter. The bill also allows unlicensed teachers to proctor state tests, permits charter boards to remove members via vote, and enables partnerships with learning pods and virtual microschools operated by colleges. These changes directly affect charter schools, their students (including high-risk populations), and county school districts managing student transfers.
