General. In carrying out

providing such services on the site to its other public schools; and
(2) Provide funds under Part B of the Act to
those charter schools:

as the LEA provides funds to the LEA's other public schools, including

schools, consistent with the state's charter school law.

responsible for ensuring that the requirements of this chapter are met, unless
