A former Department of Education official said a proposed regulation restricting federal funding for public charter schools could force a number of schools to close their doors.
On March 11, the Biden administration's Department of Education announced a new regulatory proposal regarding the use of federal funds for public charter schools that places significant restrictions on the disbursement of funding to the schools while also mandating new demographic reporting requirements.
But the roughly 30-day period of public comment is about half the length of the period for most regulatory proposals. In a statement to the Washington Examiner, a Department of Education spokesperson said the regulatory proposal was aimed at aligning the federal charter school program with"the Biden-Harris administration’s priorities and commitments to improving the quality and accountability of charter schools."
The Education Department spokesperson said the new rules are aimed at"strengthening requirements to promote fiscal transparency and responsibility and ensure charter schools retain programmatic control, particularly related to relationships between charter schools and for-profit entities."
