Charters Unfairly Targeted?

Nia, Ideal Public Charter Schools Challenge Proposed Revocation

Two community-based public charter schools are challenging their proposed closures by the DC Public Charter School Board (PCSB) on the basis of process and fairness. Nia Community Public Charter School (Nia CPCS) and Ideal Academy Public Charter School (Ideal APCS) were cited by PCSB on March 30 for failure to meet the goals and student academic achievement expectations set forth in the charters. Both schools were also cited for failure to design and implement the educational program described in their applications.
