New Petitions

The LAUSD Board is vested with the authority to determine whether to grant a charter petition, and will make its determination based upon the requirements and standards of the California Charter Schools Act. Within the context of the Charter Schools Act, the LAUSD Board grants charters to petitioners who demonstrate strong capacity for establishing and operating a quality charter school that is consistent with sound educational practice and serves the interests of the entire community in which the school is proposing to locate. (Ed. Code, § 47605(c).)
