Modifies provisions relating to charter schools

Summary

The bill rewrites Missouri’s charter school statutes, limiting charter locations to certain urban or low‑performing districts and adding new sponsor types such as colleges and nonprofit technical schools. It also sets rules that sponsors cannot charge fees, requires charter schools to be nonprofit corporations, and lets cities ask for “workplace” charter schools. The changes aim to tighten oversight while giving more organizations the ability to sponsor charters.
