Indiana Charter Schools are like independent public schools. They work just like the district schools you have always had to attend... only better. One reason they're better is because you can choose to enroll. Children aren't forced to attend.

Charters Schools work better because of less bureaucracy, more parent involvement, smaller student to teacher ratios, concentration on academics over indoctrination, substance over style... and the list goes on.  
 

indianacharterschoolers network news and updates:

Articles: Who voted to slam the doors on Charter Schools in Indiana? Find out which of your Indiana Representatives decided to cap funding for all charter schools. If you are interested in real choice in education for your child, and you voted for any of these people to represent you in the Indiana Legislature, why? If you didn't vote for them, write to them and ask for an explanation. Why do they get the right to choose how your children will be educated, and you don't?

Calendar: Keep checking in with the ICS Calendar for updates.

The IndianaCharterSchoolers E-list for proponents of Public Charter Schools: There's now better way to network with hundreds of like-minded parents throughout the state than by subscribing to a networking e-list like IndianaCharterSchoolers. This is the best way to keep in the loop on the ideas, advice, news and politics of the public education alternative that millions of parents hope will save our public schools, and many politicians seem to think it won't. We wonder why that is, on the IndianaCharterSchoolers e-list. Subscribe today.

Current List Topics: Legislation before the Indiana Assembly that caps funding and growth for all charter schools. • Legislation that once again denies any funding at all for virtual charter schools. • How are the new Hoosier Academy hybrid schools doing? • And more...
Subscribe to IndianaCharterSchoolers to be a part of the growing number of parents who are realizing that if they want educational choice, they have to make the choice themselves.

 

AltEdNetwork

AEN is a network facilitator. That means we try to bring you as many opportunities to become involved as possible. Please consider participating and supporting the following independent support groups, associations and networking organizations. These organizations are parent lead rather than state school or teachers' union run. That's what we mean by independent. We are all working towards a safer, more efficient and cost effective means of educating your children. It's time to retool the schooling factories of the past two centuries and think outside the Brick and Mortar box.

The Alternative Educators' Network facilitates networking and information sharing that helps parents become more involved in the education of their children. AEN sponsors, moderates and manages e-lists like IndianaCharterSchoolers so parents can become connected to their community. More involved parents equals more involved children. After all, children learn by example.

ALL parents are Educators. What are you teaching YOUR children?

This will be the best security for maintaining our liberties. A nation of well-informed men who have been taught to know and prize the rights which God has given them cannot be enslaved. It is in the religion of ignorance that tyranny begins.
