There are a lot of reasons people choose a charter school over a traditional public school.
Charter schools provide an option when school students are unhappy in their current school or the school system is not performing to the standards expected.
Charter schools often have small class sizes, are very community-focused and have experience educating students who have added challenges or special needs better than many larger schools.
Charter schools offer the same breakfast and lunch programs a traditional school does. Charter schools offer bussing just like other public schools do. And charter schools are held to the same standards for testing and student performance as the traditional public schools are. The difference is a better environment for students who are struggling in traditional classrooms and need something more individualized for them.
Of course, every Charter School is different, and it is important to do your homework. Some charter schools have not performed well but many have provided a quality, high-performance environment for students looking for a free alternative to public schools.
The most important aspects of choosing the best school for your children is to meet the staff, see the facilities and look at your student’s individual performance in any school. We strongly encourage all parents to call The Orchard Park Academy School to schedule a tour and meet some of the staff and make a good decision.
