Board of Education president Ed Potosnak, center, said charter schools should provide extra-curricular activities for their own students.
All charter school students would be banned from district-sponsored co-curricular and athletic activities starting in the 2017-18 school year under a policy revision introduced by the Board of Education at its Aug. 25 meeting.
If enacted, the policy revision would allow charter school students who have participated in those activities in prior years to do so again during the 2016-17 school year, which starts Sept. 1, but would prohibit all others from doing so.
