===Charter School===
A [[charter school]] is a school in the United States which is operated by a private entity; however, it accepts government funding and, as such, must generally accept any student within a specific area (such as a school district) who wishes to attend (excluding students with severe disciplinary issues). The school is allowed (within certain limitations) to deviate from the requirements of the local school district.
