| Ongoing Process: Public California: Charter |
| |
| California Charter Schools with 2005 full self-study visits are using either the WASC/CDE Focus on Learning Joint Process, 2003-2004 or WASC Focus on Learning, 2003-2004 Edition to prepare their self-study (see Full Self-Study/Visit below). |
| |
| California Charter Schools with 2006 full self-study visits are primarily using a new Charter School protocol, WASC Focus on Learning, California Charter Schools, 2004 Edition to prepare their self-study (see Full Self-Study/Visit below). This protocol clarifies important areas for charter schools to examine with respect to some of the WASC criteria, such as governance and finance. A second option for these schools is the WASC/CDE Focus on Learning Joint Process, 2003-2004 (Updated Fall 2004 for 2005-2006 Schools). Please contact the WASC office with any questions.
