(Such as renewable energy courses, environmental studies, new media, modeling and simulation, special needs accommodation, agriculture, learning environments, and telecommunication.)

Create and maintain a strong relationship with all segments of the community including, but not exclusively, local businesses, legislators, parents, community leaders, teachers, school support staff, public employee unions, state and county officials, qualified non-profit groups, and other educational and community-minded groups and individuals for the continuing goal of improving education and educational opportunities for our community.
The goals of the school will be explicitly used as a template to help organize course and program development, this will steadily prompt the growth of administrative protocols and support mechanisms within the school for accomplishing them.

What is a charter school?
“Charter schools are innovative public schools providing choices for families and students.”

Nearly 3,000 new schools have been launched since state legislatures began passing charter legislation in the 1990s. Chartering is a radical educational innovation that is moving states beyond reforming existing schools to creating something entirely new. Chartering is at the center of a growing movement to challenge traditional notions of what public education means.

Chartering allows schools to run independently of the traditional public school system and to tailor their programs to community needs. While not every new school is extraordinarily innovative and some school operations may mirror that of traditional public schools,policymakers, parents, and educators are looking at chartering as a way to increase educational choice and innovation within the public school system. Over one million students are enrolled in more than 3,500 schools in 40 states, plus the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.”
