SB 724 - This act requires the State Board of Education to establish a process whereby a charter school may demonstrate compliance with applicable school-level standards of the Missouri School Improvement Plan (MSIP) and requires each charter school in the Kansas City district to demonstrate compliance with the State Board's standards or document that the school is accredited by an accreditation agency which accredits one or more non-public schools in Missouri, provided that such standards are no lower than the state standards.
This act is identical to SB 072 (2003).
