As the debate over Assembly Bill 84 (AB 84) continues, it's crucial for charter school stakeholders to stay informed. The Charter Schools Development Center (CSDC) has released several key resources to help educators, families, and advocates understand the potential implications of this legislation:
- AB 84 Fact Sheet: This concise, one-page summary outlines what's at stake for charter schools under AB 84. Use it to sharpen how you talk about the bill.
- AB 84 Leave Behind for Legislators: Designed for meetings with legislators and their staff, this one-page informational sheet presents compelling arguments and data to convey the concerns of the charter school community regarding AB 84.
- AB 84: Are Students in Nonclassroom-Based Charter Schools Worth Less?: This document delves into how AB 84 could disproportionately affect nonclassroom-based charter schools, highlighting funding exclusions and how the bill proposes even deeper inequity for those students in a different school model.
These resources are available on CSDC’s AB 84 Action Center page:
