Changes to the Performance Frameworks to align with changes to applicable state or federal accountability requirements shall apply to the Charter School. In the event of such changes, the Authorizer will use best efforts to apply expectations for school performance in a manner consistent with those set forth in the Performance Frameworks as initially established in the most recent charter agreement. Changes to the Performance Frameworks that are not required by state or federal law or accountability requirements will not become binding upon the Charter School without the Charter School’s consent, except at the time of charter renewal or amendment.
