Request for Board delegation of authority on charter school management contracts

the backup memo is here
Wulfson: charter schools are permitted to contract with outside organizations for all or part of their services
a small number in Massachusetts use them
charters were recently renewed; contracts then are amended under the new charters
past practice has been to delegate that to the Commissioner, when the Board does not traditionally meet
one of the contracts is with Sabis, for those who follow such things

Motion carries unanimously

Board adjourns
