Self-Policing



Arizona has a new policy where successful charter school operators form an independent review panel to approve potential charter school applications.

The board's new independent review committee, to be selected from among successful charter owners, will score each application without knowing the person or company that submitted it. The state charter board will get each committee member's judgment, as well as a committee consensus and recommendation. Good or bad, board members still will make the final decision.
