Download or read book Charter School Appeals Policy Guide written by Paul T. O'Neill and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Authorizers must decide whether a proposed school should be allowed to open and whether it should be required to close. To enable authorizers to serve as quality gatekeepers for the sector, state policy must give authorizers clear power to deny low-quality charter school applications and to close charter schools that fail to meet expectations. At the same time, when the authorizer decides against a school, a well-structured appeals process enhances fairness for charter school applicants and schools and helps hold authorizers accountable for making sound, merit-based decisions. In the life cycle of a charter school, there are three common circumstances that can trigger an appeal: (1) Rejected application for a new charter school; (2) Rejected application for charter school renewal; and (3) Revocations. Whatever the circumstances of appeal, one important consideration is whether the appeal is procedural (claiming that the authorizer did not follow proper process) or substantive (claiming that the decision-making body made a bad decision on the merits). A procedural appeal might argue, for example, that an authorizer violated its own renewal procedures by failing even to read a school's renewal application, while a substantive appeal could argue that the authorizer failed to appreciate all the merits of the renewal application. Whatever the administrative rules are regarding charter school appeals in a particular location, those threatened with the closure of a charter school may also seek to have a court weigh in on whether the process is being carried out lawfully, and perhaps seek an injunction halting the process at least temporarily. This guide discusses the following: (1) Background on Charter School Appeals; (2) Key Considerations for Policymakers in Structuring Effective Charter Appeals Processes; (3) Recommendations and Best Practices for State Policy on Charter School Appeals; and (4) Resources and Further Analysis. (Contains 4 endnotes and 6 resources.).

Download or read book Brown v Board of Education written by James T. Patterson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2001-03-01 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2004 marks the fiftieth anniversary of the Supreme Court's unanimous decision to end segregation in public schools. Many people were elated when Supreme Court Chief Justice Earl Warren delivered Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka in May 1954, the ruling that struck down state-sponsored racial segregation in America's public schools. Thurgood Marshall, chief attorney for the black families that launched the litigation, exclaimed later, "I was so happy, I was numb." The novelist Ralph Ellison wrote, "another battle of the Civil War has been won. The rest is up to us and I'm very glad. What a wonderful world of possibilities are unfolded for the children!" Here, in a concise, moving narrative, Bancroft Prize-winning historian James T. Patterson takes readers through the dramatic case and its fifty-year aftermath. A wide range of characters animates the story, from the little-known African Americans who dared to challenge Jim Crow with lawsuits (at great personal cost); to Thurgood Marshall, who later became a Justice himself; to Earl Warren, who shepherded a fractured Court to a unanimous decision. Others include segregationist politicians like Governor Orval Faubus of Arkansas; Presidents Eisenhower, Johnson, and Nixon; and controversial Supreme Court justices such as William Rehnquist and Clarence Thomas. Most Americans still see Brown as a triumph--but was it? Patterson shrewdly explores the provocative questions that still swirl around the case. Could the Court--or President Eisenhower--have done more to ensure compliance with Brown? Did the decision touch off the modern civil rights movement? How useful are court-ordered busing and affirmative action against racial segregation? To what extent has racial mixing affected the academic achievement of black children? Where indeed do we go from here to realize the expectations of Marshall, Ellison, and others in 1954?
