2. Charter Schools
Charter schools are public schools open to any child, free of
charge. They are founded by local parents, teachers, educators,
and others. Each Charter School is founded upon a particular
mission. If more children want to enroll in a school than it has
space for, a random lottery determines who gets in—no
admission hurdles, no entrance exams, no preferential
treatment.
