    6  charter school, shall verify that the charter school meets the
    7  criteria in subsection (1) and provide a letter to the charter
    8  school and the sponsor stating that the charter school is a
    9  high-performing charter school pursuant to this section. The
   10  commissioner shall annually determine whether a previously
   11  designated high-performing charter school under subsection (1)
   12  continues to meet the criteria in that subsection. Such high
   13  performing charter school shall maintain its high-performing
   14  status unless the commissioner determines that the charter
   15  school no longer meets the criteria in subsection (1), at which
   16  time the commissioner shall send a letter to the charter school
   17  and its sponsor notifying them that the charter school no longer
   18  satisfies the criteria for providing notification of its
   19  declassification as a high-performing charter school and that
   20  the school is being placed on probation for a 1-year period
   21  during which the school may continue to operate in accordance
   22  with subsection (2). After the 1-year probationary period, the
   23  charter school may regain its high-performing status if it
   24  satisfies the criteria in subsection (1).
