A proposal to extend the sunset provision for the creation of new public charter schools in Tennessee is advancing in the House. The legislation sponsored by Rep. Ulysses Jones Jr. unanimously passed the House Education K-12 Subcommittee last week. Currently, the provisions of the Public Charter Schools Act of 2002 is scheduled to sunset July 1, 2008, unless re-enacted or extended by the General Assembly. The bill would extend the sunset date to 2015. Charter schools "are essential in helping high priority schools and high priority students," Jones said.
