WHAT ARE PRE-OPENING REQUIREMENTS? Pre-Opening Requirements are a set of primarily compliance-based actions that a school must complete prior to opening its doors and starting instruction. Schools must demonstrate that there is sufficient demand (enrolled students) to warrant school opening. In addition, schools must demonstrate that the physical building and staff are ready to receive students for instruction. Pre-Opening Requirements usually consist of a combination of paper screening of compliance documents and an on-site visit to the school site to continue to build the collaborative relationship between the authorizer and the school staff that started during the charter application and approval process. A detailed list of actions required for schools to demonstrate their readiness to serve students is included below. WHY ARE PRE-OPENING REQUIREMENTS IMPORTANT? Authorizers are under obligation to proactively monitor activity at all schools during the time between when new charters are awarded and when schools open. It is the authorizer s obligation to make the determination if a school has completed the necessary preparations and largely satisfied the necessary Pre-Opening Requirements before the school is allowed to open for instruction. If the charter school does not complete the necessary Pre-Opening Requirements, and the authorizer determines that the enrollment is too low for the school to be financially viable, or the adults in the building and/or the physical structure are not ready to receive students for instruction, the authorizer must not provide the school with final authorization to open. A delay in opening will be in effect until the authorizer can confirm that the school has satisfied all necessary Pre-Opening Requirements and all necessary documents are on file. WHAT CONSTITUTES A PRE-OPENING REQUIREMENT? Pre-Opening Requirements represent the set of tasks that, once completed, will assist charter schools in coming into general compliance with applicable laws and regulations, as well as those that will facilitate effective and responsible management of school operations. Although charter school operators will likely identify additional tasks that they will need to complete during the critical time between charter authorization and the opening of the school, the tasks included in the Pre-Opening Protocol (below) alert school founders to those tasks which may not be directly related to the school s education program but are essential to school operations, nonetheless. HOW ARE PRE-OPENING REQUIREMENTS ORGANIZED? Pre-Opening Requirements are organized by general categories, including: students, enrollment, and admissions; governance; budget; and transportation, among others. Each Pre- Opening Requirement will be assigned a specific due date. Under the Documentation column, the Pre-Opening Protocol also indicates for school operators the specific documentation required for fulfilling particular terms. Finally, the document includes a column for authorizers to verify whether schools have met each Pre-Opening Requirement. 3
