Facilities Offered to the Charter School Were Not Reasonably Equivalent Where District Failed to Consider Non-Classroom Space

The California Court of Appeal has held that a school district failed to comply with the requirements of Proposition 39 because the facilities it offered a charter school were not reasonably equivalent to the facilities that the district would have provided to the charter school students if they had attended a public school within the district. (Bullis Charter School v. Los Altos School District (--- Cal.Rptr.3d ----, Cal.App. 6 Dist., October 27, 2011).) For more information, please see our Legal Alert.
