Factors to Consider

Each charter school has its own mission and subscribes to certain teaching philosophies. In researching schools, parents and families are encouraged to consider what environment is the best match for their child’s interests and needs. To assist parents and families, the U.S. Department of Education ("USDOE") Office of Innovation and Improvement has developed a publication titled, Choosing a School for Your Child. For your convenience, we have provided a document that includes select guiding questions from the USDOE publication, as well as a link to the USDOE website where a complete version of the publication may be accessed.
