Denial of the Renewal Petition for North Valley Military Institute

November 7, 2017
Charter Schools Division
Action Proposed:
Staff recommends denial of the renewal petition for North Valley Military Institute College Preparatory
Academy (“Charter School”), located in Board District 6 and Local District Northeast, for five (5) years,
beginning July 1, 2018 until June 30, 2023, to serve 725 students in grades 4-12 in year one, and up to 915
students in grades 4-12 by the end of the charter term, and adoption of the attached Findings of Fact In Support
of Denial of the Charter Petition for North Valley Military Institute College Preparatory Academy.
Background:
North Valley Military Institute College Preparatory Academy is a 6-12 independent charter school currently
serving 610 students on the campus of Sun Valley High School, as a co-location at 12105 Allegheny Street, Sun
Valley, CA 91352 in Board District 6 and Local District Northeast. Charter School was initially approved by the
LAUSD Board of Education on March 25, 2003 as Imagine Academy Charter. During the 2005-06 academic
year, the school underwent a name change from Imagine Academy Charter to North Valley Charter Academy
(NOVA) and was renewed on June 24, 2008. Upon its second renewal on January 15, 2013, Charter School
submitted its petition under the name of North Valley Military Institute College Preparatory Academy.
On September 13, 2017, North Valley Military Institute College Preparatory Academy submitted its charter
renewal petition application to the Charter Schools Division. The 60-day statutory timeline for Board action on
this renewal petition runs through November 12, 2017.
A Public Hearing was held on October 3, 2017.
Based on a comprehensive review of the charter petition application and the record of performance of North
Valley Military Institute College Preparatory Academy, staff has determined that the charter school has not met
the requirements set forth in Education Code 47605 and therefore recommends denial of the renewal petition.
Statutory Framework
Education Code section 47605(b) sets forth grounds for denying a charter petition. Section 47605(b) states that
"[t]he governing board of the school district shall grant a charter for the operation of a school under this part if
it is satisfied that granting the charter is consistent with sound educational practice. The governing board of the
school district shall not deny a petition for the establishment of a charter school unless it makes written factual
findings, specific to the particular petition, setting forth specific facts to support one or more of the following
findings:
(1) The charter school presents an unsound educational program for the pupils to be enrolled in the charter
school.
(2) The petitioners are demonstrably unlikely to successfully implement the program set forth in the
Los Angeles Unified School District Page 1 of 4 Printed on 10/26/2017
powered by Legistar™
889
(2) The petitioners are demonstrably unlikely to successfully implement the program set forth in the
petition.
(3) The petition does not contain the number of signatures required by subdivision (a) [of section 47605].
(4) The petition does not contain an affirmation of each of the conditions described in subdivision (d) [of
section 47605].
(5) The petition does not contain reasonably comprehensive descriptions of all of the [fifteen elements set
forth in section 47605, subdivision (b) (5)].
(6) The petition does not contain a declaration of whether or not the charter school shall be deemed the
exclusive public employer of the employees of the charter school for purposes of Chapter 10.7
(commencing with Section 3540) of Division 4 of Title 1 of the Government Code.” (Ed. Code § 47605,
subd. (b).)
Grounds for Denial

Staff of the Charter Schools Division and the Office of the General Counsel reviewed the charter school
petition application for North Valley Military Institute College Preparatory Academy and have assessed that the
petition application does not meet the criteria for approval. As fully discussed in the attached Findings of Fact
In Support of Denial of the Charter Petition for North Valley Military Institute College Preparatory Academy,
based on review of the petition, supporting documentation, and record of performance, staff has determined, in
accordance with Education Code section 47605(b), the following:
(1) Petitioners are demonstrably unlikely to successfully implement the educational program set forth in the
petition.
(2) The charter school presents an unsound educational program for the pupils to be enrolled in the charter
school.
(3) The petition does not contain reasonably comprehensive descriptions of all of the fifteen elements
required in a charter school petition.
Due Diligence
Current North Valley Military Institute College Preparatory Academy governing board members did not
complete questionnaires regarding conflicts of interest. A due diligence review of the charter school and its
governing organization, school leader, and on-site financial manager, was not performed by the Office of the
Inspector General because the requisite information was not submitted by Charter School.
The petition is available for perusal in the Charter Schools Division and online at the District’s Board of
Education website at <http://laschoolboard.org/charterpetitions>.
Expected Outcomes:
Denial will prevent the Charter School from continuing its operations as a charter school under the terms of the
renewal petition.

890
Board Options and Consequences:

“Yes” If the Board adopts the recommendation of denial and the attached Findings of Fact in Support of
Denial of the Charter Petition for North Valley Military Institute College Preparatory Academy would not be
authorized to continue operating as a charter school under the terms of the renewal petition. Charter School’s
current charter expires on June 30, 2018. The petitioners may appeal a denial to Los Angeles County Board of
Education or the California State Board of Education and, if the appeal is approved, Charter School would be
authorized by the approving authorizer.
“No” If the Board does not adopt the recommendation of denial of the charter petition and the attached
Findings of Fact in Support of Denial of the Charter Petition for North Valley Military Institute College
Preparatory Academy, and instead takes specific action to approve the renewal charter petition, North Valley
Military Institute College Preparatory Academy would be authorized to continue operating as a charter school
under the terms of the approved renewal petition for a five (5) year period beginning July 1, 2018. Within 30
days, the Board requires that the school submit to the Charter Schools Division a revised renewal charter
petition that meets all LAUSD requirements, including but not limited to a reasonably comprehensive
description of all fifteen required elements and compliance with current District Required Language.
Policy Implications:
There are no policy implications at this time.
Budget Impact:
The Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) and various other income sources of the District are reduced when
current District students enroll at a charter school, and corresponding reduction in expenditures may not occur
in such cases. If the Board adopts staff recommendation of denial of the petition, the action will not have a
budget impact. If the Board does not adopt the staff denial recommendation and the petition is approved, the
impact on the budget will be commensurate with the terms of the specific Special Education Local Plan Area
(SELPA) MOU (Option 1, 2, or 3) executed by the charter school and the District.
Student Impact:
As stated in the Board of Education’s Policy on Charter School Authorizing, “[W]hen the Board of Education
authorizes a charter school, it establishes a partnership to advance its vision and mission and to accelerate gains
in academic achievement and accountability for all of its students and public schools (Policy, p.1).” Based on a
comprehensive review and assessment of Charter School’s renewal petition application and its record of
performance, staff has determined that Charter School has not met the requirements for charter school renewal
and therefore recommends denial of the renewal petition. Please see Attachment A.

grades 4-12 in year one, and up to 915 students in grades 4-12 by the end of the charter term.
II. CRITERIA FOR RENEWAL

Upon submission, District staff comprehensively reviews each renewal petition application to
determine whether the school has met the requirements for renewal set forth in California Education
Code sections 47605 and 47607. Once a charter school is determined to be eligible for renewal under
§ 47607(b), the school must submit a renewal petition application that, upon review, is determined to
be educationally sound, reasonably comprehensive, and demonstrably likely to be successfully
implemented. (Ed. Code §§ 47607(a) and 47605.) Pursuant to the requirements of SB 1290, the
District “shall consider increases in pupil academic achievement for all groups of pupils served by the
charter school as the most important factor in determining whether to grant a charter renewal.” (Ed.
Code § 47607(a) (3) (A).) The District “shall consider the past performance of the school’s academics,
finances, and operation in evaluating the likelihood of future success, along with future plans for
improvement if any.” (5 CCR § 11966.4.) Please see Policy for Charter School Authorizing (LAUSD
Board of Education, February 7, 2012) for more information.

c. Minimum Renewal Eligibility Criteria

NVMI has not met the minimum renewal eligibility criteria, as noted below and in the
Findings of Fact.
Minimum Renewal Criteria

Yes/No
(School must meet at least one of the following criteria (Ed. Code § 47607(b).)
Has the charter school attained its Academic Performance Index (API) growth target in the
prior year or in two of the last three years, both school wide and for all significant N/A
subgroups?
Has the charter school ranked in deciles 4 to 10, inclusive, on the API in the prior year or
N/A
in two of the last three years?
Has the charter school ranked in deciles 4 to 10, inclusive, on the API for a demographically
N/A
comparable school in the prior year or in two of the last three years?
Has the charter school presented clear and convincing evidence of academic performance
that is at least equal to or greater than the academic performance of Resident Schools and No
District Similar Schools*?
*“Resident Schools” = Public schools that the charter school students would have otherwise attended based on their
addresses. “District Similar Schools” are LAUSD schools on the CDE’s Similar Schools list for this
charter school.
d. Student Subgroup Academic Growth

For reasons more fully set forth in the attached Findings of Fact in Support of
Recommendation of Denial of the Renewal Charter Petition for North Valley Military
Institute College Preparatory Academy, staff’s recommendation is consistent with the
requirements of SB 1290. Based on the past two years of CAASPP (SBAC) data,
comparison of the percentages of students that Met or Exceeded the performance standards
reveals that the charter school’s numerically significant subgroups demonstrated academic
growth in ELA but did not demonstrate academic growth for three of the four student
subgroups in Math. English Learners increased by 0.30 percentage points in ELA and 0.00
percentage points in Math. The data reveal that the English Learner subgroup did not
achieve proficiency in Math for the past two years (2015-2016 and 2016-2017). Latino
students increased by 8.88 percentage points in ELA and decreased by 2.12 percentage
points in Math. The Socioeconomically Disadvantaged subgroup increased by 9.50
percentage point in ELA and decreased by 2.30 percentage points in Math. Students with
Disabilities increased by 6.21 percentage points in ELA and 1.32 percentage points in
Math.
e. English Learner Reclassification Rates

North Valley Military Institute College Preparatory Academy’s record reveals persistently
low rates of English Learner reclassification. In 2016-17, North Valley Military Institute
College Preparatory Academy’s reclassification rate of 0.00% was lower compared to the
Resident Schools Median of 18.1% and Similar Schools Median of 16.0%. In 2015-16, the
Charter School’s rate of 0.00% was lower than the Resident Schools Median of 14.6% and
Similar Schools Median of 16.0%.
North Valley Military Institute College Preparatory Academy’s reclassification criteria are
as follows:
Page 7 of 13
899
 Assessment of language proficiency using an objective instrument including, but not

limited to, the CELDT
 Comparison of the pupil’s performance in basic skills against an empirically
established range of performance of English proficient pupils of the same age that
demonstrate that pupil is sufficiently proficient in English to participate effectively in
a curriculum designed for pupils of the same age whose native language is English
 Teacher participation and any other certificated staff with direct responsibility for
evaluating pupil’s curriculum mastery

information demonstrate that the school has had negative net assets for the last two years
and net loss for the last four years. The school has unresolved fiscal operations issues in
this category. Please see the Findings of Fact in Support of Denial of the Renewal Petition
for North Valley Military Institute College Preparatory for further detail.
a. Summary
North Valley Military Institute College Preparatory (NVMI) has achieved the ratings of
Developing and Unsatisfactory in the category of Fiscal Operations on its annual oversight
evaluation reports for the last two years.
During the 2016-2017 oversight visit, the CSD noted that the school had been continuously
cited for not having clear and thorough Fiscal Policies with clearly written guidelines in
some fiscal areas. NVMI revised its Fiscal Policies, which were approved by its governing
board on May 25, 2017. The revised Fiscal Policies have not addressed all the areas
identified in 2016-2017 oversight report. Examples of the areas noted for further
improvement that are not included in NVMI’s current Fiscal Policies include:
- Use of school debit cards

- Procurement policies
- Detailed processes for disbursements
- Proper authorization, recording, custody and reporting
- Review of bank reconciliations for outstanding checks over 180 days

d. Other Significant Fiscal Information

Based on the independent audit reports, NVMI has incurred net losses since 2012-2013.
The independent audit reports for both 2014-2015 and 2015-2016 indicate issues in the
Going Concern notes to the financial statements. NVMI’s financial problems can be
attributed primarily to the start-up and ongoing costs to enhance and maintain the military
program (which include: uniforms and uniform accoutrements for all students, bus
transportation for students to and from school, substantial athletics, outdoor education, and
leadership development programs), along with the large number of necessary Special
Education full-time and part-time staff required to serve the high percentage of special
education students at NVMI. Although NVMI made major cuts of $600K during the 2016-
2017 school year, net assets remained negative. The school has been selling off accounts
receivable in order to meet ongoing expenditures and is seeking additional operating capital
from fundraising and donations.
Page 12 of 13
904
The CSD issued a Notice of Concern dated December 7, 2016, requiring that NVMI
provide monthly financial reports for monitoring purposes. The Notice of Concern also
required that the school provide supporting documents to the CSD, in order to demonstrate
immediate sources of revenue necessary to maintain a viable budget or financial plan. The
documentation provided by NVMI did not support the full amount of school-site
fundraising revenues and donations budgeted by the school. As a result, the CSD issued a
Notice to Cure on August 1, 2017.

CRITERIA FOR RENEWAL
Upon submission, District staff comprehensively reviews each renewal petition

application to determine whether the school has met the requirements for renewal set
forth in California Education Code sections 47605 and 47607. Once a charter school is
determined to be eligible for renewal under § 47607(b), the school must submit a
renewal petition application that, upon review, is determined to be educationally sound,
reasonably comprehensive, and demonstrably likely to be successfully implemented.
(Ed. Code §§ 47607(a) and 47605.) Pursuant to the requirements of SB 1290, the
District “shall consider increases in pupil academic achievement for all groups of pupils
served by the charter school as the most important factor in determining whether to
grant a charter renewal.” (Ed. Code § 47607(a)(3)(A).) The District “shall consider the
past performance of the school’s academics, finances, and operation in evaluating the
likelihood of future success, along with future plans for improvement if any.” (5 CCR §
11966.4.) Please see Policy for Charter School Authorizing (LAUSD Board of Education,
February 7, 2012) for more information.

FINDINGS OF FACT IN SUPPORT OF DENIAL OF THE
RENEWAL CHARTER PETITION FOR
NORTH VALLEY MILITARY INSTITUTE COLLEGE PREPARATORY ACADEMY
BY THE LOS ANGELES UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT
BOARD OF EDUCATION REPORT 182-17/18

November 7, 2017
I. INTRODUCTION
On September 13, 2017 the Los Angeles Unified School District (“District”) received a petition
(“Petition”) for the renewal of the North Valley Military Institute College Preparatory Academy
charter for a term of five years. North Valley Military Institute College Preparatory Academy
(“NVMI”) is a 6-12 independent charter school currently serving 610 students in grades 6-12 on
the campus of Sun Valley High School, as a co-location through Proposition 39 currently at 12105
Allegheny Street, Sun Valley, CA 91352, in Board District 6 and Local District Northeast.
Based on a comprehensive review of the renewal petition application and the record of
performance of NVMI, staff has determined that the charter school has not met the requirements
set forth in Education Code sections 47605 and 47607 and therefore recommends denial of the
renewal petition.
II. STANDARD OF REVIEW FOR RENEWAL PETITIONS
The Charter Schools Act of 1992 (“Act”) governs the creation of charter schools in the State of
California. The Act includes Education Code section 47605, subdivision (b), which sets out the
standards and criteria for petition review, and provides that a school district governing board in
considering whether to grant a charter petition “shall grant a charter for the operation of a school
under this part if it is satisfied that granting the charter is consistent with sound educational
practice.”
The Act further provides that renewals and material revisions of charter petitions are governed by
the same standards and criteria set forth in Education Code section 47605 “and shall include but
not be limited to, a reasonably comprehensive description of any new requirement of charter
schools enacted into law after the charter was originally granted or last renewed.” (Ed. Code §
47607, subd. (a)(2).)
According to the California Code of Regulations, title 5, section 11966.4, subdivision (a)(1), a
charter school must also provide documentation with its petition for renewal showing that it has
satisfied at least one of the following academic performance criteria specified in Education Code
section 47607, subdivision (b):
1. Attained its Academic Performance Index (API) growth target in the prior year or in two of
the last three years, or in the aggregate for the prior three years; or
Doc# 571159
1
2. Ranked in deciles 4 to 10, inclusive, on the API in the prior year or in two of the last three
years; or
3. Ranked in deciles 4 to 10, inclusive, on the API for a demographically comparable school in
the prior year or in two of the last three years; or
4. The entity that granted the charter determines that the academic performance of the charter
school is at least equal to the academic performance of the public schools that the charter school
pupils would otherwise have been required to attend, as well as the academic performance of
the schools in the school district in which the charter school is located, taking into account the
composition of the pupil population that is served at the charter school. This determination
shall be based upon all of the following: a) documented and clear and convincing data; b) pupil
achievement data from assessments, including, but not limited to, the Standardized Testing and
Reporting Program established by Article 4 (commencing with Section 60640) for
demographically similar pupil populations in the comparison schools; and c) information
submitted by the charter school; or
5. Qualified for an alternative accountability system pursuant to subdivision (h) of Section 52052.
Section 47605(b) states that “[t]he governing board of the school district shall grant a charter for
the operation of a school under this part if it is satisfied that granting the charter is consistent with
sound educational practice. The governing board of the school district shall not deny a petition
for the establishment of a charter school unless it makes written factual findings, specific to the
particular petition, setting forth specific facts to support one or more of the following findings:
1. The charter school presents an unsound educational program for the pupils to be enrolled in
the charter school.
2. The petitioners are demonstrably unlikely to successfully implement the program set forth in
the petition.
3. The petition does not contain the number of signatures required by subdivision [47605] (a).
4. The petition does not contain an affirmation of each of the conditions described in subdivision
(d) [of section 47605].
5. The petition does not contain reasonably comprehensive descriptions of all of the [fifteen
elements set forth in section 47605 (b) (5)].
6. The petition does not contain a declaration of whether or not the charter school shall be deemed
the exclusive public employer of the employees of the charter school for purposes of Chapter
10.7 (commencing with Section 3540) of division 4 of Title 1 of the Government Code.”
Doc# 571159

State regulations provide:
A petition for renewal submitted pursuant to Education Code section 47607 shall be considered by
the district governing board upon receipt of the petition with all of the requirements set forth in
this subdivision:
1. Documentation that the charter school meets at least one of the criteria specified in Education
Code section 47607(b).
2. A copy of the renewal charter petition including a reasonably comprehensive description of

how the charter school has met all new charter school requirements enacted into law after the
charter was originally granted or last renewed. (Title 5, California Code of Regulations (“5
CCR”), section 11966.4, subdivision (a).)
Pursuant to the requirements of SB 1290, the District “shall consider increases in pupil academic
achievement for all groups of pupils served by the charter school as the most important factor in
determining whether to grant a charter renewal.” (Ed. Code § 47607(a)(3)(A).)
In addition, state regulations require the District to “consider the past performance of the school’s
academics, finances, and operation in evaluating the likelihood of future success, along with future
plans for improvement if any.” (5 CCR § 11966.4.)
III. ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE
As discussed above, charter schools that have operated for at least four years must first meet one
of the minimum academic performance criteria listed in Education Code section 47607,
subdivision (b) or Education Code sections 52052(e)(2)(F) and 52052(e)(4)(C) before the renewal
request is analyzed further. (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 5, § 11966.4; Ed. Code, § 47607, subd. (b).)
(Exhibit B – NVMI Renewal Petition, Element 1).
A. Minimum Criteria for Renewal
Based on a comprehensive review of the renewal petition and the school’s record of performance,
District staff has concluded that North Valley Military Institute College Preparatory Academy has
not met the minimum criteria for renewal eligibility and standards and criteria for renewal, in that
the Charter School has not presented clear and convincing evidence of academic performance that
is at least equal to or greater than the academic performance of Resident Schools and District
Similar Schools (Exhibit A1- NVMI Data Set). For two consecutive years (2015-2016 and 2016-
2017), NVMI’s CAASPP (SBAC) results show levels of academic performance that are
significantly below the Resident Schools Median and Similar Schools Median in both English
Language Arts (ELA) and in Math.
Doc# 571159

Minimum Renewal Criteria
Yes/No
(School must meet at least one of the following criteria (Ed. Code § 47607(b).)
Has the charter school attained its Academic Performance Index (API) growth target
in the prior year or in two of the last three years, both schoolwide and for all significant N/A
subgroups?
Has the charter school ranked in deciles 4 to 10, inclusive, on the API in the prior year
N/A
or in two of the last three years?
Has the charter school ranked in deciles 4 to 10, inclusive, on the API for a
N/A
demographically comparable school in the prior year or in two of the last three years?
Has the charter school presented clear and convincing evidence of academic
performance that is at least equal to or greater than the academic performance of No
Resident Schools and District Similar Schools*?
*“Resident Schools” = Public schools that the charter school students would have otherwise attended based on their
addresses. “District Similar Schools” are LAUSD schools on the CDE’s Similar Schools list for this charter school.
(Exhibit A1- NVMI Data Set.)
B. Student Academic Performance in ELA and Math
On the 2016-2017 CAASPP (SBAC) assessment in English Language Arts, 21.16% of NVMI’s
students Met or Exceeded the performance standards, which is lower than the Resident Schools
Median of 35.56% and the Similar Schools Median of 56.38%. In Math, 6.07% of NVMI’s
students Met or Exceeded the performance standards, which is lower than the Resident Schools
Median of 18.55% and the Similar Schools Median of 20.49%. On the 2015-2016 CAASPP
(SBAC) assessment, the same pattern emerged. In English Language Arts, 11.00% of NVMI’s
students Met or Exceeded the performance standards, which was lower than the Resident Schools
Median of 44.50% and the Similar Schools Median of 55.00%. In Math, 8.00% of NVMI’s
students Met or Exceeded the performance standards, which was lower than the Resident Schools
Median of 18.00% and the Similar Schools Median of 22.50% (Exhibit A1- NVMI Data Set).
C. Student Subgroup Academic Growth
Pursuant to the requirements of SB 1290, the District “shall consider increases in pupil academic
determining whether to grant a charter renewal.” (Ed. Code § 47607(a) (3) (A).) The Charter
School’s record of academic performance indicates that NVMI’s numerically significant
subgroups (English Learners, Students with Disabilities, Latino and Socioeconomically
Disadvantaged) have achieved some growth in academic performance, but the results reveal single
digit proficiency levels for half of the charter school’s subgroups in ELA, and for all of the charter
school’s subgroups in Math.
Based on the past two years of CAASPP (SBAC) data, comparison of the percentages of students
that Met or Exceeded the performance standards reveals that NVMI’s English Learners increased
by 0.30 percentage points in ELA, as a result 1.30% of students scored at Met or Exceeded
categories. In Math, the English Learner subgroup exhibited no growth and remained the same at
0 percent proficient. For the Students with Disabilities subgroup, there was an increase of 6.21
percentage points in ELA, (resulting in 9.21% who Met or Exceeded standards) and in Math,
Doc# 571159
4
increased to 1.32% from the previous year’s performance level of 0 percent proficient. For the
Latino subgroup, students increased by 8.88 percentage points in ELA, (resulting in 19.88% who
scored at Met or Exceeded categories) but decreased by 2.12 percentage points in Math, as a result
4.88% of students scored at Met or Exceeded categories. Socioeconomically Disadvantaged
students increased by 9.50 percentage points in ELA, as a result 19.50% of students scored at Met
or Exceeded categories, and decreased by 2.3 percentage points in Math, as a result 4.70% of
students scored at Met or Exceeded categories. (Exhibit A1- NVMI Data Set).
As part of the District’s extra consideration of NVMI’s performance in academic achievement, an

analysis of NVMI’s 2016-2017 CAASPP (SBAC) subgroup performance compared to subgroup
performance of District Resident Schools (“Resident Schools”) has been performed. This analysis
revealed that NVMI’s subgroup performance was lower than the performance of the four
subgroups of Resident Schools in both ELA and Math, with one exception. At NVMI, 1.30% of
English Learners Met or Exceeded the Standards in ELA, compared to Resident Schools Median
of 1.35%. In Math, none of NVMI’s English Learners performed at Met or Exceeded performance
levels, as compared to Resident Schools Median of 1.21%. For the Latino subgroup, the charter
school had 19.88% compared to Resident Schools Median of 35.51%, and in Math, 4.88%
compared to Resident Schools Median of 17.72%. At NVMI, 19.50% percent of
Socioeconomically Disadvantaged subgroup Met or Exceeded the Standards in ELA, compared to
Resident Schools Median of 35.05%. In Math, the charter school had 4.70% who Met or Exceeded
the Standards, compared to Resident Schools Median of 17.62%. For Students with Disabilities,
the charter school had 9.21% who Met or Exceeded the Standards in ELA, compared to Resident
Schools Median of 7.50%, and in Math, 1.32% percent of the charter school’s Students with
Disabilities Met or Exceeded the Standards, compared to Resident Schools Median of 1.67.
Furthermore, when comparing the percentage of students who Met or Exceeded the performance
standards in ELA, NVMI was lower than 20 out of 22 Resident Schools; in Math, NVMI was
lower than 19 out of 22 Resident Schools. (Exhibit A1- NVMI Data Set).
Moreover, NVMI’s record reveals persistently low English Learner reclassification rates. For the
past two years, NVMI’s reclassification rate was 0%, and in 2014-2015, was 2.6%. Conversely,
the rate of reclassification over the past three years for Similar Schools was at least 16%, and for
Resident Schools at least 14%. It is noteworthy that the number of English Learners at NVMI has
increased during the same timeframe when its reclassification rate decreased. The charter school
went from having one (1) English Learner (EL) student in 2014-2015, to 63 EL students in 2015-
2016, and 92 EL students in 2016-2017 (Exhibit A1- NVMI Data Set).
While the school’s four-year cohort graduation rate for the 2015-2016 school year is 95%, higher
than the Resident Schools Median of 86.7% and Similar Schools Median of 91.2%, staff is
concerned with the low levels of proficiency noted above in the CAASPP (SBAC) data, including
in comparison with Resident and Similar Schools. (Exhibit A1- NVMI Data Set).
IV. STAFF SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
After a careful and thorough review of the Petition, the school’s record of performance, and all
documentation submitted by North Valley Military Institute College Preparatory Academy,
District staff recommends that the Board of Education adopt these Findings of Fact for the Denial
Doc# 571159
5
of the North Valley Military Institute College Preparatory Academy Charter Renewal and deny
the renewal petition based on the following grounds:
(A) Petitioner is demonstrably unlikely to successfully implement the program set forth in the
petition; (Ed. Code § 47605(b)(2).)
(B) The charter school presents an unsound educational program for the pupils to be enrolled in
the charter school; (Ed. Code § 47605(b)(1).)and
(C) The petition does not contain reasonably comprehensive descriptions of all required
elements. (Ed. Code § 47605(b)(5).)
IV. FINDINGS OF FACT FOR DENIAL


A. The Petitioners are demonstrably unlikely to successfully implement the program
set forth in the petition, as indicated by the following findings:
 The renewal petition contained inaccurate data to support its presentation of student
achievement. Petitioners included a table with reclassification rates that do not match
the rates reported by the California Department of Education (CDE). In addition, the
table entitled “CDE School Dashboard with 2017 DF3 Projections” was provided as
evidence of academic success, that was contradicted by official (CDE) data (Exhibit
A2 ELA and Math Assessment Report, CA School Dashboard, Spring 2017 and
Exhibit B – NVMI Renewal Petition, p. 17). The CDE Dashboard reveals that the
schoolwide and subgroup student performance levels in English Language Arts and
Math are at the “Lowest” performance levels as denoted by the color “Red.” The
Status is “Very Low” in both ELA and Math for schoolwide and for all numerically
significant subgroups. Finally, the “Change” column for schoolwide indicates
“Declined Significantly” in ELA and “Maintained” in Math. (Exhibit A2- ELA and
Math Assessment Report, CA School Dashboard, Spring 2017.)
 On February 28, 2017, the Charter Schools Division (CSD) issued a letter to NVMI
expressing concerns about the academic progress of their students. The CSD
requested a detailed description of how the school intended to improve student
performance in both ELA and Math as measured by the CAASPP (SBAC)
assessments schoolwide and for all subgroups (Exhibit C1- Student Achievement and
Educational Performance Notice). On May 6, 2017, over two months after the initial
correspondence, NVMI responded with their plan. A review of NVMI’s response
revealed insufficient detail that raised concerns about the school’s capacity for
effectuating change and accomplishing academic improvements. (Exhibit C2- NVMI
Response to Student Achievement and Educational Performance Notice).
 On September 20, 2017, after receiving NVMI’s renewal application, the CSD gave
NVMI an additional opportunity to share, in detail, their plans for student academic
growth. The petitioners’ responses either lack specific operational, organizational and
educational plans, or lack alignment with the renewal charter petition, further
Doc# 571159
6
indicating that the petitioner is demonstrably unlikely to successfully implement the
program. Moreover, as noted further below, the school’s precarious fiscal position
limits its ability to infuse additional resources to make improvements.
 Petitioners propose to expand their educational program to serve additional grades, 4-

5, but have not demonstrated the capacity to provide a successful elementary school
program. NVMI did not provide sufficient evidence that the school leaders have
elementary school experience, nor did they provide sufficient evidence that the current
NVMI board members have the instructional capacity to successfully implement an
elementary school program. (Exhibit J-Current NVMI Board Members, retrieved
10/24/17).
 Petitioners have presented an unsound financial plan for the proposed charter school:
o The petition does not provide an adequate plan describing how the school intends
to meet its enrollment projection for grades 4 and 5. The Charter School’s five-
year cash flow budget projections, submitted with the petition, include the
elementary grades that the Charter School is proposing to add, namely, grades 4
and 5, beginning with the 2018-2019 fiscal year. Student enrollment is projected
at 725, 805, 905 and 915 for the four years beginning with Fiscal Year 2018-2019,
compared to the current enrollment of 610 in 2017-2018, as indicated in the
Charter School’s budget. When grades 4 and 5 are removed from the Charter
School’s assumptions, student enrollment projections would be lowered to 655,
665, 695, and 705 for the four years starting 2018-2019. As described above, the
Petitioners have not operated an elementary school before, and the Petition fails to
describe the instructional program specifically geared for the elementary grades it
is proposing to add.
o The Charter School uses an Average Daily Attendance (ADA) of 97% across the
five years in its budget, which is higher than the historical trend of 93%, 97% and
94% in 2016-2017, 2015-2016, and 2014-2015, respectively, based on the data
reflected on the California Department of Education’s website. This is significant
because the assumption of 97% ADA creates an inaccurate projection as explained
below:
o The Charter School’s revenue amounts ($4,032,568 in year 2017-2018,

$5,129,299 in year 2018-2019, $5,890,661 in year 2019-2020, $6,959,082 in year
2020-2021, and $7,048,312 in year 2021-2022) are based on the increased
enrollment of grades 4 and 5 and the higher ADA percentage assumed by the
Charter School. These projections represent a significant portion of the its
budgeted LCFF Revenue, and the Charter School’s projections rely significantly
on these LCFF Revenue projections for its operational budget. Should the Charter
School not receive the amount of funds it projects, it is unlikely that the Charter
School will be able to meet its financial obligations, which would significantly
impact its ability to successfully operate its educational program.
Doc# 571159
7
o The Charter School’s five-year cash flow budget projections, submitted with the
petition, project the receipt of $2,375,000 in fundraising revenues and donations
over the next five years. Even with the anticipated and scheduled fundraising
events for 2017-2018 per the Petitioners, which include a $118,000 donation
received to date from a single donor, the Charter School did not provide
documentation or evidence to fully support the likelihood that the Charter School
will actually be able to obtain such anticipated funds in its budget. The Charter
School’s basis for the fundraising revenues and donations in its budget is built on
the assumption that it will be able to achieve at least the same level of fundraising
and donations it did in 2016-2017 (approximately $320,000), including the
assumption of a fundraising target at $550/ADA each year going forward
(compared to $212/ADA or $73,000 in 2014-2015, $231/ADA or $112,000 in
2015-2016, and $400/ADA or $221,000 in 2016-2017). The Charter School does
not have a history supporting the significant increase per ADA going forward in
school-site fundraising or consistent major contributors in the past years.
Fundraising revenues or donations should be considered supplemental revenue
sources for the school, and without written agreements or firm commitments, may
vary from year to year. These revenue amounts (totaling $475,000 for each of the
five years, as presented in its budget), represent a significant portion of the Charter
School’s budgeted revenue, and the Charter School relies on these non-guaranteed
sources for a significant portion of its operational budget. Should the Charter
School not receive the amount of funds it assumes, it is unlikely that the Charter
School will be able to meet its financial obligations, which would significantly
impact its ability to successfully operate its educational program.
 Petitioners have not presented clear and thorough fiscal policies. During the 2016-
2017 annual performance-based oversight visit, the CSD noted that the Charter School
had been continuously cited for not having robust fiscal policies with clearly written
guidelines in some fiscal areas. The Charter School’s recently revised, governing
board-approved fiscal policies still have not addressed all the areas identified in the
2016-2017 Annual Performance-Based Oversight Visit Report.
B. The charter school presents an unsound educational program for the pupils to be
enrolled in the charter school.
 NVMI’s petition did not contain essential descriptions to demonstrate its sound
educational program for English Learners. The renewal petition does not include a
description of designated English Language Development (ELD), nor is it found in
any proposed class schedule. (Exhibit B- NVMI Renewal Petition p. 29). The petition
does not include detailed reclassification criteria nor does it address the process for
monitoring RFEPs, LTELs, and those “At-Risk” of becoming LTEL students. (Exhibit
G1- 2016-2017 “At-Risk” and Long-Term English Learners (LTEL) by Grade Report
and Exhibit A1- NVMI Data Set).
 NVMI’s student discipline policy contradicts the School Discipline Policy and School
Climate Bill of Rights passed by the LAUSD Board of Education. The NVMI
Cadet/Parent Handbook, and renewal petition Element 10, states, “the successful
Doc# 571159
8
operation of any military organization, a cadet’s refusal to comply with established
grooming and uniform regulations is regarded as an act of defiance. Therefore, all
such acts of non-compliance are grounds for suspension and/or expulsion.” (Exhibit
D1-2016-2017 NVMI Cadet/Parent Handbook, p. 145). In addition, NVMI states,
“Cadets who do not meet our expectations for conduct, integrity, and/or who do not
fulfill their duties are given extensive supports and multiple opportunities to modify
behaviors and attitudes, but may forfeit their opportunity to attend NVMI if they do
not take advantage of those opportunities and supports” (Exhibit B- NVMI Renewal
Petition, p. 6).
 The charter school’s admissions procedures include requirements which are contrary
to statute that requires charter schools to enroll all student who wish to attend.
NVMI’s renewal petition states, “[a]ll students enrolling in NVMI must successfully
complete an Entrance Camp….”
C. The Petition does not contain reasonably comprehensive descriptions of all of the
[fifteen elements set forth in section 47605, subdivision (b)(5)]:
Educational Program (Element 1)

The Petition does not contain a reasonably comprehensive description of Charter
School’s educational program.
 The Petition fails to describe the instructional program specifically geared for the
elementary grades that school is proposing to add, namely grades 4 and 5. The petition
states, “The demanding academic program includes language arts, math, science and
history, as well as world languages, leadership, and physical fitness training.” (Exhibit
B- NVMI Renewal Petition, pp. 6, 70, and 81). However, petitioners do not describe
the elementary school program nor do they address or identify textbooks related to the
elementary school grades. The current petition only describes “textbooks currently in
use as of August 2017” (Exhibit B- NVMI Renewal Petition, p. 110-111) which are
those currently utilized in grades 6-12. The petition states that “textbooks for grades
4-5 are currently under consideration by the NVMI Curriculum Committee using the
regular textbook adoption process…” (Exhibit B- NVMI Renewal Petition, p 111).
 The Petition does not include details about how charter school will support Foster
Youth. For example, the petition acknowledges that, “Almost every enrolled [student]
has experienced one…of the following characteristics:…English Learners…Foster
Youth…” (Exhibit B- Renewal NVMI Petition, p. 14 and 73). However, a detailed
explanation about how Foster Youth will be identified, how their needs will be met,
what supports will be provided and how and by whom progress will be monitored are
missing from the submitted petition.
 The Petition fails to identify how and by whom school will monitor the progress of
Socioeconomically Disadvantaged/Low Income Students (Exhibit B- NVMI Renewal
Petition, p. 122).
Doc# 571159
9
 The Petition fails to identify how and by whom school will monitor the progress of
Students Achieving Above Grade Level (Exhibit B- NVMI Renewal Petition, pp. 123-
124).
 The Petition does not identify the specific criteria for passing “A-G” courses. Instead,
the Petition states in general terms, “Students must pass all required courses taken
while in attendance at the school and have a minimum of 260 credits.” (Exhibit B-
Renewal NVMI Petition, p. 84).
 The Petition does not ensure that the school is committed to remain Western
Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) accredited, which raises concerns for
the future graduates of NVMI.
 NVMI’s renewal petition does not include required language for Special Education
and the Modified Consent Decree (MCD). The Petition does not contain an affirmation
that the school is required to utilize MiSiS directly or interface with MiSiS via a web
based Application Programming Interface (API) in compliance with the requirements
of the MCD and applicable timelines.
Governance Structure (Element 4)

The Petition does not contain a reasonably comprehensive description of Charter
School’s governance structure.
 The petition does not include a description of the major roles and responsibilities, within
the governance structure, of any executive-level employees (e.g., the Superintendent
who is “also known as Executive Director” per Bylaws Article V, section 7(a);
Commandant, etc.).
 The petition fails to provide a sufficient description of how the Charter School will
comply with the Brown Act. While the petition specifies that the Charter School will
comply with the Brown Act, neither the petition nor NVMI corporate Bylaws (which
are not signed/adopted and were inserted as text in the petition), specify locations for
posting regular or teleconference meeting agendas to ensure adequate notice and
participation of the public. Further, the Bylaws, and petition, fail to describe other
requirements for conducting a meeting by teleconference including accessibility of the
location(s) to interested stakeholders. Also, Article V, section 15 of Bylaws allows
Trustees to continue to transact business in the absence of a quorum at a “meeting at
which a quorum is initially present notwithstanding the withdrawal of Trustees, if any
action taken is approved by at least a majority of the required quorum for that meeting”
instead of meeting as a committee or adjourning per the California Attorney General
(Brown Act publication 2003), thereby violating the open meeting laws of the Brown
Act.
 The Charter School’s corporate Board Bylaws, inserted within the petition, allow for
practices that may run contrary to conflict of interest laws including Government Code
section 1090 et seq. and District policies applicable to the Charter School. For instance,
Doc# 571159
10
the Bylaws in Article V, section 4 provides for officers of the corporation to designate
a new board of Trustees in the absence of any remaining Board members to elect new
members while Article VI, section 3(a) describe the composition of an Executive
Committee to include “all of the officers of the Corporation who are also Trustees….”
Both provisions indicate that officers, who are paid employees are allowed to designate
and could also be members of the Board of Trustees. While Article V, section 17
provides that Trustees may not receive compensation, there is clearly an overlap in
powers and roles of officers and Trustees which could present violation in conflict of
interest laws including Government Code section 1090.
 The Petition does not contain an affirmation acknowledging that as an independent

charter school, it is operated as or by its nonprofit public benefit corporation, and it is a
separate legal entity and shall be solely responsible for the debts and obligations of
Charter School.
 The Petition inadequately addresses the Governing Board’s responsibility for public
accountability and transparency.
o Charter School shall comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and
regulations, and District policy as it relates to charter schools, as they may be
amended from time to time.
o Charter School shall comply with all applicable federal and state reporting
requirements, including but not limited to the requirements of CBEDS, CALPADS,

o Charter School shall comply with the Brown Act and the Public Records Act.
o Charter School and all employees and representatives of Charter School, including
members of Charter School’s governing board, members of Charter School or
governing board committees and councils, Charter School administrators, and
managers, shall comply with federal and state laws, nonprofit integrity standards,
and LAUSD charter school policy, regarding ethics and conflicts of interest. Charter
School shall enter into all transactions and conduct business with all persons and
entities at arm’s length or, in the case of otherwise permissible related party
transactions, in a manner equivalent to arm’s length.
o Charter School shall notify parents, guardians, and teachers in writing within 72
hours of the issuance of a Notice of Violation, Notice of Intent to Revoke, Final
Decision to Revoke, Notice of Non-Renewal, or equivalent notice, by the LAUSD
Board of Education.
 The Petition does not include provisions for compliance with Title IX, Section 504 and
Uniform Complaint Procedures which is required to inform its stakeholders, including
students and parents, of their rights pursuant to those laws.
Doc# 571159
11
 The Petition does not include an assurance that the Charter School and its nonprofit
corporation shall promptly respond to all reasonable inquiries, including but not limited
to inquiries regarding financial records from the District, and shall cooperate with the
District regarding any inquiries. The petitioner does not acknowledge that the Charter
School, including but not limited to its nonprofit corporation, is subject to audit by
LAUSD, including, without limitation, audit and investigation by the District Office of
the Inspector General if an allegation or other evidence of waste, fraud, abuse, or other
material violation of law related to Charter School’s operations, or breach of the Charter,
is received or discovered by the District, Charter School, including but not limited to its
nonprofit corporation, employees, and representatives.
 Charter School does not acknowledge that persons and entities that directly exercise
control over the expenditure of Charter School’s public funds shall be subject to all
necessary and appropriate District charter school oversight for accountability and
protection of public funds.
 Petition does not contain a provision that the Charter School shall not require a parent
or legal guardian of a prospective or enrolled student to perform volunteer service hours,
or make payment of fees or other monies, goods, or services in lieu of performing
volunteer service, as a condition of his/her child’s admission, continued enrollment,
attendance, or participation in the school’s educational activities, or otherwise
discriminate against a student in any manner because his/her parent cannot, has not, or
will not provide volunteer service to Charter School.
Health and Safety Procedures (Element 6)

The Petition does not contain a reasonably comprehensive description of the Charter School’s
Admission Requirements.
 Petition does not fully contain the following provisions to ensure the health and safety of pupils
and staff, including the following:
o Charter School shall comply with all applicable federal, state, and local requirements related
to school and student health, safety, and emergency preparedness.
o If Charter School occupies and/or operates on a District facility, Charter School shall
comply with all District health, safety, and emergency procedures and requirements
applicable to District facilities and related operations, and shall be subject to inspection by
the District’s Facilities Services Division, Office of Environmental Health and Safety, and
other District offices in the same manner as other LAUSD campuses.
o Charter School shall stock and maintain the required number and type of emergency
epinephrine auto-injectors onsite and provide training to employee volunteers in the storage
and use of the epinephrine auto-injector as required by Education Code section 49414 and
section 4119.2 of the Business and Professions Code, as they may be amended from time to
time.
Doc# 571159
12
o Charter School shall comply with the requirements of Education Code section 49475, with
respect to any athletic program (as defined in Education Code § 49475) offered by or on
behalf of Charter School.
o Charter School shall provide all employees, and other persons working on behalf of Charter
School who are mandated reporters, with annual training on child abuse detection and
reporting, which shall occur within the first six weeks of each school year, or within the first
six weeks of a person’s employment if employed after the beginning of the school year, in
accordance with the requirements of AB 1432 (2014).
o Charter School shall periodically review, and update and/or modify as necessary, its Health,
Safety, and Emergency Preparedness Plan, and keep it readily available for on-site use.
Charter School shall provide a copy of the Health, Safety, and Emergency Preparedness
Plan for review upon CSD request.
Racial and Ethnic Balance (Element 7)

means by which the school will achieve a racial and ethnic balance among its pupils that is
reflective of the general population residing within the territorial jurisdiction of the school
district to which the charter petition is submitted.
 The Petition does not contain a provision that it shall comply with all requirements of the
Crawford v. Board of Education, City of Los Angeles court order and the LAUSD Integration
Policy adopted and maintained pursuant to the Crawford court order by the District’s Student
Integration Services (collectively the “Court-ordered Integration Program”). The Court-
ordered Integration Program applies to all schools within or chartered through LAUSD.
Admission Requirements (Element 8)

Admission Requirements.
 Element 8 failed to describe the timelines and procedures related to admission and lottery
requirements, including:
o Open enrollment period(s) or timeline, and related enrollment procedures

 Method(s) that the school will use to communicate to all interested parties the timeline,
rules, and procedures to be followed during the open enrollment and lottery processes
 Method that the school will use to ensure lottery procedures are fairly executed and that
interested parties may attend and observe
 Date, time, and location for the lottery each year, if needed
 Procedures that the school will follow to determine waiting list priorities based upon
lottery results and to enroll students from the waiting list
 Means by which the school will notify parents/guardians of students who have been
offered a seat as a result of the lottery or from the waiting list following a lottery, and
Doc# 571159
13
the procedures and timelines under which parents/guardians must respond in order to
secure admission
 Method for documenting the fair execution of lottery and waitlist procedures
 Element 8 provides that “[a]ll students enrolling in NVMI must successfully complete
an Entrance Camp….” This is a conditional admission practice contrary to the law
requiring charter schools to admit all who wish to attend.
 Further, Element 8 includes a requirement that “each admitted student is required to
participate in an interview with a member of the NVMI Admissions Staff.” This is a
concern in that an interview is mostly understood to be an evaluation process and may
be used to weed out students who do not meet expectations of the highly regimented
military structure of the Charter School.
 The Petition does not contain a provision acknowledging requirements under applicable
federal and state laws regarding homeless and foster youth, including but not limited to the
provisions of AB 379 (2015) and Chapter 5.5 (commencing with Section 48850) of Part
27 of Division 4 of Title 2 of the Education Code. The Petition also does not contain a
provision that Charter School shall extend its uniform complaint procedure to complaints
filed pursuant to the applicable provisions of AB 379.
o The Petition does not contain the following provisions to ensure nondiscriminatory
admissions processes:
 Charter School shall not require a parent/legal guardian/student to provide

information regarding a student’s disability, gender, gender identity, gender
expression, nationality, legal or economic status, primary language or English
Learner status, race or ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, or any other
characteristic that is contained in the definition of hate crimes set forth in section
422.55 of the Penal Code, or any other information that would violate federal or
state law, prior to admission, participation in any admissions or attendance lottery,
or pre-enrollment event or process, or as a condition of admission or enrollment.
 Charter School shall not request or require submission of a student’s IEP, Section
504 Plan, or any other record or related information prior to admission,
participation in any admissions or attendance lottery, or pre-enrollment event or
process, or as a condition of admission or enrollment.
Annual Financial Audits (Element 9)

 The Petition does not fully delineate that the Charter School will follow the required format and
timelines for submission of reports including:
o Provisional Budget – Spring prior to operating fiscal year
o Final Budget – July of the budget fiscal year
o First Interim Projections – November of operating fiscal year
o Second Interim Projections – February of operating fiscal year
o Unaudited Actuals – July following the end of the fiscal year
o Audited Actuals – December 15 following the end of the fiscal year
o Classification Report – monthly according to Charter School’s Calendar
Doc# 571159
14
o Statistical Report – monthly according to Charter School’s Calendar of Reports
In addition:
 P1, first week of January
 P2, first week of April
o Instructional Calendar – annually five weeks prior to first day of instruction
o Other reports as requested by the District
Suspension and Expulsion Procedures (Element 10)

The Petition does not contain a reasonably comprehensive description of the charter school’s
student suspension and expulsion procedures.
 The petition’s description of the Charter School’s procedures for the discipline of students
seems to conflict with the District’s 2013 School Discipline Policy and School Climate Bill of
Rights (applicable to LAUSD-authorized charter schools through Board’s adoption of this
Resolution) prohibiting student suspension and expulsion for “willful defiance.” Specifically,
the petition states that a Charter School student may be suspended or expelled for offences
which include the following:
o Failure to show military courtesy
o Willful disobedience or defiance (including serious misconduct of an unsafe nature in a
school science laboratory)
o Extreme disruption or defiance (includes recording of inappropriate campus activities for
the purpose posting to the internet)
 Violation of the above offences are tantamount to discipline on the grounds of “willful defiance”
which is contrary to the District’s 2013 School Discipline Policy and School Climate Bill of
Rights. Moreover, the petition is inconsistent with Education Code section 48900(k)(1) which
states that except as provided in Section 48910, a pupil enrolled in kindergarten or any of grades
1 to 3, inclusive, shall not be suspended for disruption of school activities or willful defiance
and that pupil enrolled in kindergarten or any of grades 1 to 12, inclusive, shall not be grounds
for expulsion.
 The Petition fails to describe how and where the Charter School will provide students with
meaningful access to education during the term of the suspension by failing to include the
protocol regarding the provision of instruction and materials for suspended students (e.g.,
homework, missed tests).
 The Petition does not contain the following provisions which would ensure due process for
students facing suspension or discipline:
o Charter School shall provide due process for all students, including adequate and timely
notice to parents/guardians and students of the grounds for all suspension and expulsion
recommendations and decisions and their due process rights regarding suspension and
expulsion, including rights of appeal.
Doc# 571159
15
o Charter School shall ensure that its policies and procedures regarding suspension and
expulsion will be periodically reviewed, and modified as necessary, in order to conform to
changes in state law.
o Charter School shall be responsible for the appropriate interim placement of students during
and pending the completion of Charter School’s student expulsion process and shall
facilitate the post-expulsion placement of expelled students.
o Charter School shall document and implement the alternatives to suspension and expulsion
that Charter School utilizes in response to attendance-related concerns, e.g. truancy or
excessive tardiness.
o Charter School’s governing board shall adopt rules establishing a procedure for processing
reinstatements, including the review of documents regarding the rehabilitation plan. Charter
School is responsible for reinstating the student upon the conclusion of the expulsion period
in a timely manner.
 The Petition does not include the following language that would ensure adherence to the Chanda
Smith Modified Consent Decree pertaining to the discipline of students with disabilities:
o Charter School shall ensure that its staff is knowledgeable about and complies with the
District’s Discipline Foundation Policy and/or current equivalent policy, as required by the
Modified Consent Decree. Charter School shall comply with the terms of the School
Discipline Policy and School Climate Bill of Rights resolution adopted by the LAUSD
Board of Education on May 6, 2013.
V. RECOMMENDATION
Based on the foregoing, Staff recommends that the Petition be denied for the following reasons:
(1) The charter school presents an unsound educational program for the pupils to be enrolled in
the charter school; (2) it is demonstrably unlikely that the Petitioners will successfully implement
the program set forth in the Petition; and, (3) the Petition does not contain reasonably
comprehensive descriptions of certain required elements set forth in Education Code section
47605, subdivision (b)(5)(A-O).
As stated in the comments to SB 1290, “This bill specifies that a charter authorizer must consider
increases in pupil academic achievement for all groups of pupils served by the school, as measured
by the [Academic Performance Index (API)], ‘as the most important factor’ for renewal and
revocation. This does not mean the charter school is automatically not renewed or revoked, but it
does mean that the charter authority must consider this information as the most important factor in
making its decision. In other words, the charter authority must give extra weight to this factor
when it considers all the factors for renewal or revocation.”
In review of the Charter School’s Petition, the District has considered increases in pupil academic
determining whether to grant the charter renewal.
Doc# 571159
16
VI. CONCLUSION
In order to deny the Petition on the grounds set forth above, Education Code section 47605,
subdivision (b), requires the Board to make “written factual findings, specific to the particular
petition, setting forth specific facts to support one or more” grounds for denying the Petition.
Should the Board decide to deny the Petition, District Staff recommends that the Board adopt these
Findings of Fact as its own.
