Charter schools

A charter school is a public school operated by a group of parents, teachers, and/or community members in accordance with the local board of education.  Teachers for these schools are often licensed, but it is not required.  The application by the school must include a description of the educational program, which must meet or exceed state (and district) standards.  User-friendly web sites that provide more detailed information are as follows:
