C6.35 - Approve the Applications for NorthStar Academy of Hillsborough County East and NorthStar Academy of Hillsborough County West (Charter Office)

Description

On February 1, 2019, the district received six applications for prospective charter schools.  Applicants were given the opportunity to present their applications to the Charter School Application Review Team. The team, made up of staff from a variety of district departments, reviewed the applications and provided feedback collectively. Feedback was compiled and used to interview the applicants for further understanding of the applications.  

Four out of the six applications were withdrawn. The following applicants withdrew their applications and may apply during a later application period:

  • American Classical Charter Academy
  • Literacy Leadership Technology Academy South Bay
  • Navigator Academy of Leadership South Tampa
  • Success Preparatory School
The recommendation is to approve two applications: 
  • NorthStar Academy of Hillsborough County East
  • NorthStar Academy of Hillsborough County West 
The applications meet all of the statutory requirements in F.S. 1002.33(6).

A summary for NorthStar Academy of Hillsborough County East and NorthStar Academy of Hillsborough County West are attached.
