The Ohio Association of Charter School Authorizers has been formed to represent all Ohio authorizers. Authorizing organizations were initiated by our State Legislature to sponsor the creation of and monitor the activities of community (charter) schools.

To be the resource/focal point for pooling resources so that all sponsors can achieve their goals of authorizing and supporting schools that produce student success.

Promote sponsor excellence, effectiveness and efficiency to create and maintain high-quality community schools through quality oversight and support.

The State Board of Education will hold a public hearing on administrative rule actions
- including 3301-102-01 to 3301-102-06 community school sponsorship
- on May 10, 2010 at 4 p.m. in the Conference Center at the Ohio School for the Deaf, 500 Morse Rd., Columbus, Ohio.

The proposed revised rules reflect NO stakeholder input, despite OACSA's full engagement including submission of a written summary of key concerns shared with ODE's Office of Community Schools. It's important that stakeholders continue to engage in the process now that the proposed rules have been filed with the Joint Committee on Agency Rule Review (JCARR). A representative of OACSA will testify at the May 10 hearing and the organization encourages all sponsors with an interest in the proposed rules to also attend.
