Ohio charter schools have long reported struggling in their efforts to secure school facilities. A newly-released report, “An Analysis of the Charter School Facility Landscape in Ohio,” from the Ohio Alliance for Public Charter Schools, the National Charter School Resource Center, the Charter School Facilities Initiative, managed by the Colorado League of Charter Schools, and the National Alliance for Public Charter Schools surveys school principals to get the most detailed look to date of Ohio charter school facilities. The survey, which includes data from 81 percent of Ohio's brick and mortar charter schools, examines multiple aspects of charter facilities including the size, uses, and cost per student of each.
On February 2, 2016, we partnered with the Callender Group to bring the report's authors to Columbus to discuss their findings. We also brought together a group of Ohio charter schools/school networks to talk about their first-hand experiences finding and maintaining their school facilities.
