Idaho puts 3 charter schools on notice

Three Idaho charter schools run the risk of a midyear financial collapse, and are on notice with the state. Idaho’s Public Charter School Commission has issued notices of fiscal concern to Blackfoot Charter Community Learning Center in Blackfoot; Syringa Mountain School in Hailey; and The Village Charter School in Boise. The three schools received more than $4.1 million in state funding in 2015-16, and the recent notices won’t affect how much taxpayer money they receive for 2016-17. But it does affect the state’s payment schedule/Kevin Richert, Idaho Education News. More here.

Question: Have any of your children or grandchildren attended a charter school?
