HB 1176 changes the approval process for open-enrollment charter schools. It requires a two-thirds vote of the State Board of Education (SBOE) to reject a charter proposal submitted by the commissioner of education, increasing the threshold from the previous majority vote. If the SBOE does not act within 90 days, the charter is automatically approved.
