- Summary:
-
This handbook has been prepared to assist Albertans in understanding the provincial charter school concept, to assist charter organizers with their planning and preparation for the establishment of charter schools in Alberta, and to assist those responsible for processing charter school applications. Bill 19, The School Amendment Act, which provided for the establishment of charter schools, was proclaimed into law on May 25, 1994. Charter schools are autonomous public schools that provide innovative or enhanced means of delivering education to improve student learning. Following the overview, information is provided on the characteristics of charter schools, things to consider before preparing an application, who is eligible to apply, and the application process. Answers to commonly asked questions about eligibility, governance, accountability, programs, students, teachers, grants, and applications are provided. Samples are also provided of the charter-school application form, declaration, checklist, and acceptance and rejection statements. Elements to be included in the charter agreement are outlined. Appendices contain a copy of the School Act and an explanation of charter-school regulation. (LMI)
