Summary

Existing law requires a charter school to admit all pupils who wish to attend the school, and, if the number of pupils who wish to extend the charter school exceeds the school's capacity, requires attendance to be determined by a public random drawing, as specified. This bill would authorize a charter school to exempt a pupil with a moderate to severe disability from the public random drawing if the pupil is eligible for, and seeks placement in, a specialized program operated by the charter school that is designed for pupils with moderate to severe disabilities. The bill would require a public random drawing to be held if the number of pupils who wish to attend the charter school's specialized program exceeds the program's capacity, would exempt certain pupils from the public random drawing, and would require preference to be granted to pupils who meet specified requirements.
