Chapter 711 (Charter Schools)
Chapter 711 specifies how the Commonwealth, through the Department of Education, will meet its obligation to ensure that charter schools comply with the IDEA and its implementing regulations in 34 CFR Part 300 (relating to assistance to states for the education of children with disabilities) and Section 504 and its implementing regulations in 34 CFR Part 104 (relating to nondiscrimination on the basis of handicap in programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance).
This chapter does not prevent a charter school and a school district from entering into agreements regarding the provision of services and programs, whether or not the agreements involve payment for the services and programs by the charter school.
