When choosing a public school, families may encounter several options, including charter schools, magnet schools, and traditional public schools. While all three are publicly funded and tuition-free, they differ in structure, enrollment, and educational approach.
Charter schools are public schools that are independently operated and publicly funded, with the flexibility to innovate while remaining accountable to high academic and operational standards.
