Accountability Plan Guidelines

One way in which charter schools demonstrate results is through reporting on selected outcomes using an Accountability Plan (603 CMR 1.02). A charter school creates an Accountability Plan to publicly articulate the goals the school has set to measure its success during a five-year charter term. These Accountability Plan Guidelines (Guidelines) are intended to assist in the creation of an Accountability Plan. Using the Guidelines and the template provided, a charter school can develop an Accountability Plan that will clearly demonstrate performance relative to the goals set forth in its charter.
