[42 Pa.B. 7696]
[Saturday, December 22, 2012]

 The Department of Education (Department) has scheduled a public hearing regarding Achievement House Cyber Charter School's request to amend its cyber charter. The amendment request was received on October 4, 2012. The hearing will be held on Thursday, February 7, 2013, beginning at 9 a.m. in Heritage Room A, lobby level, 333 Market Street, Harrisburg, PA. The purpose of the hearing is to gather information from the cyber charter school about the request to amend its cyber charter and receive comments from interested persons regarding the request. The request can be viewed on the Department's web site at www.education.state.pa.us.

 The cyber charter school will have 30 minutes to present information about the requested amendment to its cyber charter. Persons who wish to provide comments during the hearing must send the Department and the cyber charter school a copy of the comments on or before January 14, 2013. Failure to comply with this deadline will preclude the respective person from providing verbal comments at the hearing. Verbal comments may be limited, based on the number of persons requesting time to provide comments and may also be limited if the comments are duplicative or repetitive of another person's comments.

 The hearing will be conducted by the panel of individuals who have completed an initial review of the request. The panel members may question the cyber charter school regarding issues identified during their review, as well as issues raised in the written comments filed before the hearing date. Panel members may also question persons who offer verbal comments. Commentators will not be permitted to question either the cyber charter school or the panel members. Persons who are unable to attend the hearing may also provide the Department and the cyber charter school with written comments on or before January 23, 2013. Written comments provided to the Department by this deadline will become part of the certified record.

 Comments sent to the Department should be addressed to Marlene Kanuck, Bureau of Teaching and Learning, 333 Market Street, 5th Floor, Harrisburg, PA 17126-0333. An agenda will be prepared after January 28, 2013, when the Department is aware of the number of persons who wish to provide verbal comments at the hearing. That agenda will provide the order of presentation, as well as specify the amount of time allotted to each commentator. The agenda will be posted on the Department's web site http://www.portal.state.pa.us/portal/server.pt/community/charter_schools/7356/applying_to_become_a_charter_ school_in_pa/508181 under Public Hearing Notices.
