Observed practice Sample Clauses

The 'Observed practice' clause defines the requirement for parties to adhere to established or customary methods of operation within a particular industry or context. In practice, this means that actions, decisions, or interpretations under the agreement should align with how similar matters are typically handled, unless the contract specifies otherwise. This clause helps ensure consistency and predictability by referencing common standards, thereby reducing ambiguity and potential disputes over what is considered acceptable or expected conduct.
Observed practice. The SPCSA may verify compliance for certain measures in the Organizational Framework through direct observation. For example, the SPCSA may observe mandatory state assessments to ensure compliance with required procedures. At times the SPCSA may receive complaints or assertions from individuals that a school is not in compliance. In most cases, the SPCSA will generally refer the complainant to the charter school board, which is responsible for investigating such cases. However, from time to time the SPCSA may receive complaints that it must investigate directly, especially if the complaint is a major infraction (e.g., school leadership is accused of cheating on state assessments) or if it involves the charter school board (e.g., accused violations of open meeting law). In some instances, the SPCSA itself may be required by law to take action or notify appropriate authorities, including the State Education Agency, of its findings. The Organizational Framework ratings process may consider information gleaned from investigations conducted by the SPCSA.
