Corporate-run Schools of Hope can use public school buildings and access student data under FL DOE rules.
That means sensitive student info could be shared with unaccountable charter operators. @strongflschools.bsky.social is sounding the alarm.

Florida’s Auditor General found the state's voucher program was $398M over budget last year—and FLDOE couldn’t track 30,000 students or account for $270M meant to fund them. Details: https://bit.ly/4iWfySr
