Public Charter School Commission

A Public Charter School Commission is a government body that oversees charter schools, which are publicly funded but operate independently from the traditional school district system. This commission is responsible for approving new charter schools, monitoring their performance, and ensuring they meet educational standards and accountability requirements. Charter schools offer more flexibility in teaching and curriculum than traditional schools, aiming to improve educational outcomes. The commission plays a vital role in ensuring that these schools effectively serve their students and communities while adhering to state and federal education laws.
