RE:   H.B. No. 2267

 

 

 

 

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Fifth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2010

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Education, to which was referred H.B. No. 2267 entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO PUBLIC CHARTER SCHOOLS,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this bill is to require the Department of Education (DOE) to distribute to charter schools on an equitable basis, federal grant or subsidy moneys received by DOE, when charter school enrollment numbers have been used to secure the funding.

 

     The Hawaii Charter Schools Network, Waimea Middle Public Conversion Charter School, Hawaii Technology Academy, and a concerned individual testified in support of this bill.  DOE supported the intent of this measure.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Education that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2267 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Finance.

 

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Education,
