Every parent wants the best possible education for their child, especially as they move into secondary or high school. Unlike years ago, parents now have so many more options to choose from when it comes to their children’s schooling. One of the main choices parents face is whether to enroll their kids in a public or charter school. Understanding the benefits of each type of school can be difficult, so below is a brief outline of what sets public and charter schools apart.
A Charter School
A charter school is an independently run school whose student specifically choose to attend that institution. Charter schools often specialize in one type of study, including “Real Estate & Facilities,” “Information Technology,” and “Human Resources.”
A Public School
A public school is supported by public funds. Every home located in that designated school district pays taxes, which go directly to their K – 12 public school system.
Key Differences
Regardless of the type of school your child goes to, they should always have the best, most sustainable equipment possible!
