CHARTER SCHOOLS
Charter Schools are becoming more popular as an alternative choice to traditional schools.They function like a business and are under constant pressure to perform well, both financially and academically under the terms of the charter contract. They do not receive capital funds for facilities and federal legislation provides grants to help charters with start-up costs. As a result, learning can become specialized and relevant, while enrollments are usually half the size of traditional schools.
