(f) No local school board shall require any employee of the
school district to be employed in a charter school.
(g) No local school board shall require any pupil residing
within the geographic boundary of its district to enroll in a charter
school.
(h) If there are more eligible applicants for enrollment in a
charter school than there are spaces available, successful applicants
shall be selected by lottery. However, priority shall be given to
siblings of pupils enrolled in the charter school and to pupils who
were enrolled in the charter school the previous school year, unless
expelled for cause. Dual enrollment at both a charter school and a
public school or non-public school shall not be allowed. A pupil who
is suspended or expelled from a charter school shall be deemed to be
suspended or expelled from the public schools of the school district
in which the pupil resides.
(i) No charter school established under this Article may be
authorized to open prior to the school year beginning in the fall of
