Government

The School District of Manatee County is in receipt of an orrder from the Department of Administrative Hearings on the appeal filed by Lincoln Memorial Academy, Inc.  The decision by the School Board to terminate Lincoln Memorial Academy, Inc.’s charter on the grounds of  an immediate and serious danger to the health, safety and welfare of students was upheld in its entirety. Lincoln Memorial Academy’s appeal was denied. The decision by the Department of Administrative Hearings reflects the facts presented in the case and such decision is consistent with the statute that governs all charter schools. 

It has been made clear that the intention of the School Board of Manatee County is that Lincoln Memorial Academy remain a charter school in such a way that guarantees its success academically, financially and in terms of community governance and support. As such, the School Board will continue to pursue all options to turn that intention into a reality.”
