Special Magistrate for Unresolved Student Welfare Complaints
Step 2:
If you as a parent/guardian believes the concern is not resolved by the our School Administrators or our Board of Directors, then parents/guardians may then notify the School District in writing, describing the nature of the concern and the reason the School Administrator’s and Board of Directors proposed resolution failed to address their concern. This notification should be made using the following email address: Charterinfo@hcps.net
Step 3:
If a parental complaint involving certain types of disputes is not resolved at the local level by a charter school administrator within seven business days, or subsequently, a school district decision within 30 business days, a parent/guardian may submit a form to the Florida Department of Education requesting the appointment of a Special Magistrate. If the request is granted, a Special Magistrate would hold a hearing and provide a recommended decision to the State Board of Education on the dispute between a parent and the school district. The State Board of Education would either approve or reject the recommended decision within 30 business days.
