Unlike private, parochial, or Christian schools, charter schools must (subject to space availability) accept students regardless of religious view, educational ability (and, in fact, many charter schools specialize in teaching students with learning challenges), or prior disciplinary problems (except for the most serious cases).

*Although [[Texas]] has traditionally been friendly toward alternate education platforms, it has maintained a fairly hard cap on the number of schools permitted, and the cap is a statewide cap as opposed to a cap in a specific area (e.g. Houston or Dallas, which have large, ineffective public school districts). In addition, in the large cities, attempts have been made to stop charter schools from opening (by denying building permits, zoning changes, and similar tactics).
