According to the Florida Department of Education, Charter schools are public schools of choice. They are very popular—and among the fastest growing school choice options in Florida. Charter schools are normally privately owned, independently run institutions that must abide by certain rules and regulations set by the school district in which they are located. Because of their public/private nature, legal matters with them can be complicated.
Charter schools are non-profit organizations that have a contract or “charter” to supposedly provide the same educational services to students as district public schools. They are nonsectarian public schools that are not subject to many of the regulations that apply to traditional public schools.
Charter schools are accountable to their sponsor, which is usually a state or local school board. They are accountable for both academic results and fiscal practices to several groups: the sponsor that grants them, the parents who choose them, and the public that funds them. In many instances, charter schools adhere to the same policies and procedures as the school district they are located.
