Same process as public schools. Most of the ones around Lafayette are ran better and out perform public schools though. There is a company, headquartered in Florida that runs close to 150 schools all across the south.

They seem to pop up everywhere. Some don’t last very long. Seems ripe for fraud.

My kid goes to one, and by all accounts it seems to be extremely well run and he's doing great there.

If it's the same as in Tennessee, they are mainly funded by state tax dollars, then fed tax dollars, plus any fundraising the school does. The charter school I'm board chair of gets more money from local foundations than from the feds, but TN provides the bulk of the funding

I guess you could say they do. They take away students from district schools, and all public/charter schools receive state funding on a per pupil basis.

Private developers build charter schools.
Taxpayers provide tuition in the form of vouchers. The idea is tax dollars follow the student.

Charter schools are for profit. They are a drain on the public education funds. Charter schools receive their vouchers either $7,000 or $7500 per student on Oct. 1. They then immediately remove the students that are not up to snuff. These kids are then sent to public schools, but the money does not have to returned. The public school receives the same amount per student as the charter school. But unfortunately the public schools are not reimbursed for the new students sent over form the charter school essential reducing the funding per student in the public school system and the charter school pockets the extra money. This process happens again after Christmas break again with the students that can't cut the mustard so that the Charter school can boast about higher test scores and how great they are. Last fact some charter schools are charging for in class learning virtual is free, but to attend you must pay out of pocket.! This is highly illegal, The company from Florida is being investigated for this!

We've never paid a dollar, and I've never heard of kids getting kicked out.
