What is a Charter School?

A charter school is a public school that has a specific mission. The school is funded through taxpayer dollars and is tuition-free to the students that attend.

According to the Maryland State Department of Education, and in accordance with state law, a Charter School is defined as:

• Nonsectarian and nondiscriminatory in its programs, policies and operations
• A school of choice, open to all students on a space available basis
• A program of elementary or secondary education or both
• Tuition-free for all eligible students
• In compliance with health, safety, state, and local laws

Charter schools must meet the same academic requirements as traditional public schools but are also directly accountable to parents and their authorizer.
