For the 2006-07 school year I accepted an assignment at the only site-based charter school in our county. I found it is well supported by a parent committee, a charter committee, and many volunteer community members and parents. The curriculum is project-based and the students practice inquiry methods. Individual differences are accepted and accomodated. With a competent administrator, a great staff, and many high hopes, this school is flourishing. The standards guide the instruction, yet the division of curriculum into six different units of inquiry has been coordinated into the state standard accountability. I fullyu support charter school, as this one operates well.
