Universal Citation: NV Admin Code 388A.347

Current through December 31, 2024

1. If the sponsor of a charter school terminates the charter contract of the charter school, the sponsor may restart the charter school by soliciting:

(a) Requests to amend the charter contract for expansion from operating charter schools; and

(b) Applications for a charter contract from committees to form a charter school and charter management organizations.

The sponsor of the charter school shall review and evaluate such requests or applications on an expedited basis outside of its normal timeline for amendments or applications. The sponsor may select one or more such persons or entities to restart the charter school.

2. The sponsor of a charter school shall grant the person or persons selected by the sponsor to restart a charter school the right of first refusal to acquire any assets of the previous charter school, including, without limitation, any facility owned by the previous charter school. Such person or persons may enter into negotiations to assume a lease of the previous charter school or secure a new facility in close proximity to the previous charter school.

3. If a new charter school selected pursuant to this section will serve the same grade level as the previous charter school, the new charter school must ensure that any pupil who was enrolled in the previous charter school who wishes to enroll in the new charter school is enrolled in the new charter school before any new pupil may be enrolled. If more pupils who were enrolled in the previous charter school request enrollment in the new charter school at a grade level than the new charter school can accommodate, the new charter school shall hold an enrollment lottery for that grade level.
