This webinar will review conflict of interest laws applicable to charter schools and discuss how to comply with these laws. In addition, we will review some examples of issues that commonly arise in charter schools like the hiring of relatives as vendors or employees of the school. We will also review concerns raised by granting agencies, FCMAT, and the Fair Political Practices Commission that have led to revocation and non-renewal of charter schools or fines and criminal prosecution of charter school leaders.

► Public Records Act
A significant amount of Public Records Act requests have recently been filed with charter schools in California. Unfortunately, charter school adversaries are increasingly using them to expose weaknesses in compliance and operations. For example, text messages and emails that both senders and recipients assumed would be private are being made public, even when sent or received by school employees and board members on personal phones and devices. This webinar will teach you how to respond to these requests. You will learn strategies to protect as much information as possible while remaining compliant. You will also hear about what happens when missteps in the response process lead to litigation.
