Charter
schools ARE
public schools:
By law, they must adhere to all
public education laws,
hire appropriately licensed teachers, follow the same curriculum standards as do traditional
school districts, take the same standardized, state - wide assessments and are free of tuition and open to all applicants.
Public districts governing boards are elected
by the local community and must approve all aspects of
school management — curriculum, expenditures,
hiring and firing of personnel, etc..
