and make satisfactory progress towards a high school diploma.
Existing law provides an exception to those provisions for a charter
school that provides instruction exclusively in partnership with one

schools chartered before July 1, 2014, becomes inoperative on July

This bill would continue until July 1, 2017, the operation of the
