Autonomy for Accountability

Charter Schools are freed from many rules that burden traditional public schools.

In exchange for this freedom, public charter schools are held accountable for improved student achievement.

Health, safety and civil rights regulations must be met.

Twice as many registered voters favor charter schools as oppose them. The more people learn about charter schools, the more they like them.
