Let's form a "compliance review committee" and meet over the summer to sort this all out. We need to look at state (DoE) laws and regulations, charter laws and regulations, VOA expectations, and what has been/needs to be done for long-term compliance in our specific case. The committee should be parent, teacher and board reps working together, I think, for best results. And we should rely heavily on VOA and MACS rep input as we do the work. We will sort this out! -Sabine On Mon, Jun 2, 2014 at 8:38 AM, <papalamaitcalli@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > There is a general licensure K-6/8?
