Arizona Charter Schools - Expanding Opportunities since 1996
In communities across the state, public charter schools have delivered on the promise to provide a wide array of educational options for students and parents in Arizona.
Simultaneously, public charters have raised the bar for academic achievement in the state. Here are some of the accomplishments of charter schools:
- 80% of public charter schools that received a letter grade in 2023 earned an “A” or “B” rating
- Public charter students of most all groups (programs, race/ethnicity) outpaced the state average in state testing results
Contributions to the Arizona Charter Schools Association, an organization tax-exempt under Code Section 501(c)(3), qualifies for a charitable contribution deduction.
