The charter contract between the charter school governi��g board and the spansor details the school's mission, program, �oals, studenfs served, methods of assessment and ways to measure success. Charters can be issued to a Non Profifi Corporation, a College or University or a Municipality. Municipal Cha�rter Schools (MCS) or Charter schools-in-a-municipality are sponsored by locai school districts in partnership with a municipality. Unlike regular Charter Schools, a MC:S can give preference to sfudents who live within their Municipality. Such schools enroll students based upon a random lottery ihai involves all of the children of ihe residents of the rraunicipality. Cu� few Municipalities have opened a MCS, however those that have are experiencing outstanding success in Academics and Enrollmenf. These Municipalities credit their Charter Schools with maintaining or increasing property values. fn addition, most Municipal Charier schools are self supporting and receive no subsidies from the+r municipality. The Question: Since Municipal Charter schools have experienced such great success, why aren't there more of them? If creafing a Municipal Charfer creates little to no financial burden on a Municipality, but increases revenues by increasing property values, then why wou{dn't a city form a MunicipaV Charier? The Answer: It is unusual to find a Municipality with expertise in education and the ability to complete the lengthy and complex forms needed to obtain a Charter. Even if the municipafity employed such an individual, obtaining a Charter, creaiing the governance structure, opening and operating a school rec{�ire a tremendous effort that is difficult in times of reduced budgets and staffing. Fh� Solulion: The Florida Municipai Charter School Foundc�tio�� Is devoted to assisting P✓tunicipalities ln forr�ing, opening c�ncl operating C�uality Municlpal Ck�arter Schools by sharing of information and expertise, and by promoting researcfl and education related to Municipal Charters. For M�unicipalities with an existing Charter Schools, they will be able to exc�ange in#ormation, dcvelop best manage�ment practices, and pool their resources to produce educational m�terial for both their students and the public. Legal or legisfafiive issues can be researched or advocated jointly, which reduces cost and increases credibility. For Municipalities considering a Charter, there will be a pool of seasoned veterans available tc explain the benefits and challenges associated with opening and running a Charter School. For those Municipalities who have decided to proceed with a Charter School, there will be assistance in filling out ihe Charter applicalion, creating governance, devefo�ing budgets and controls, creating operath�g procedures and poficies, identifying and interviewing service providers and evaluating and selecting curriculum. The Foundation's goal is to allow municipalities to navigate the Charter School process wifhout creating a burden on iis current staff or operating budget. � � Florida Muni�ipal Charte S choo! Founda FA�C�'� What is a Charter School? Charter schools are public schools that operate under a pe�formance contract, or a"charter" issued by the local school board. This frees them from many regulations created for traditional public schools while hold�ng them accountable for academic and financial results. What is a� Municipal Charter School? Municipal Charter Schools or C�harter schools-in-a-municipality are issued by the local school district in partnership with a municipafity. Such sch�ols enroll students based upon a random lottery that involves all of the children of the residents of the municipality. How are Municipal Charter Schools createcf, organized, anci operated? The Municipality forms a not for profit entity that submits an application to the school district. After the school district approves the application, the not for profit negotiates a contract with the dis#rict school board, and both parties agree upon a charter or contract. �low are Municipal Charter Schools Governed? Typically the Municipality forms a separate no# for profit organization or foundation. Its Board can be the Commissioners themselves or they can be appointed by the Commission, or some combination. Flo�s �u�h w�ll the Munici�al Charter Scho�l ��t oc�r City? Alrnost all muraicipal ��arter Schools are self-supporting and do not require supplemental funds from their Cit�. Typically some startup maney is required, which is usually repa�d ir� th2 first year of operation.

There are all types and sizes c�f Charter Schools. Flexibility and non-tr�dition�l �pproaches are �r�couraged. A Gity may chaose to apen a large Traditic�na! K thru 12, or a smail High Tech specialty schaol. With the emergence of Virtual Learning in a supervised environment, th� School can be designed to fit the Community's needs. But the schools that serve our City are already pretty good. "In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king". Your schools may be good in comparisan to other schools in Florida, but in comparison to other developed countries, our public schools are uncompetitive internationally. Our schools are in the bottom quartile of industrialized nations. In fact, Finland's bottom 10 percent is better than our fop 10 percent! As the world economy becomes increasingly global, it will be more and more difficult to attract multinational companies and their executives to our communities. High performing Municipal Charter schools can make us competitive in the world market. How can we be assured that our school will serve only our residents? While a normal Charter School cannot place restrictions on what students enter the school, a Municipal Charter School can give priority to children who live within the Municipality. Typically Municipal Charter Schools have a large waiting list of students within this municipality, making it difficult or impossible for someone outside the City to get in. V1lon't a Municipal Charter School place a large burden on our staff? They know nothing about Charter Schools. Up until now that has been correcfi and is the main reason there are so few Municipal Charter Schools. That is why the Florida Municipal Char#er School Foundation (FMCSF) was formed. The FMCSF is a not for profit foundation that has a panel of experts in education, finance and governance who can help guide a municipality through the process. The FMCSF wiil act as your staff in order to help your City bring a high performing Municipal Charter School to fruition. hlor�v do I learn more?
