This bill would eliminate Kentucky's public charter school program by repealing the laws that established and governed charter schools in the state. It also removes references to charter schools from more than a dozen other education-related laws. If passed, it would end the legal framework that currently allows charter schools to operate in Kentucky. Who it may affect: families considering charter school options, current or prospective charter school students, and educators employed by or interested in charter schools.
