Plain-language change summary

The recent amendments to HB 2158 include the removal of specific wording related to funding adjustments for charter schools based on student enrollment counts. These changes clarify that charter schools must revise their budgets based on accurate student counts, but the details about the total amount applied to their funding have been streamlined. This matters because it simplifies the process and ensures that taxpayers are not funding the same students in multiple schools, reinforcing the accountability of charter schools in managing their budgets.
