Charter schools are public schools of choice, meaning that families choose them for their children. They operate with freedom from some of the regulations that are imposed upon district schools. Therefore, if you don't like the public school assigned to your child, you may want to look into charter schools.
Here we have collected information on nearby charter schools that had a better performance (in terms of test scores) than their public school counterparts.
