Facilities
Review
Checklist |
Many charter schools use facilities
provided by religious institutions.
While this is legal the charter school's
location in a facility alongside
religious institution can trigger
separation of church and state issues
(i.e., establishment of religion). This
Checklist can be used to assess the
facility to determine if changes or
modification need to be made to the
facility in order to avoid a lawsuit or
legal challenge by the granting
agency.

required to provide this information
to support a Prop. 39 request, should
