1 REPORT TO THE BOARD OF ELEMENTARY AND SECONDARY EDUCATION - ANNUAL REPORT ON TYPE 2, 4, AND 5 CHARTER SCHOOLS FROM THE LOUISIANA DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION

2 INTRODUCTION schools are public schools in that exercise increased levels of autonomy in exchange for increased levels of accountability. They are able to make decisions about curriculum, staffing, and budgets based on the specific students enrolled in their schools. In exchange for this increased autonomy, charter schools are held accountable to an increasing set of accountability expectations year-on-year in order to continue serving students in. The three keys tenets of charter school operations in are: 1. Choice: Parents select the school their child attends and teachers and principals choose to work at schools that fit them best. 2. Autonomy: school leaders and boards are free to make decisions about staffing, curriculum development, and other factors to meet the needs of their students. 3. Accountability: schools are held to high academic, financial, and organizational standards and given state letter grades. They are closed if performance is consistently low. There are five types of charter schools in, outlined in the table below. The oversight for Type 1 and 3 charter schools lies with the local district by which they are authorized, while the Department of (LDOE) is directly responsible for the oversight of Type 2, 4, and 5 charter schools.
