“Both charter schools and regional charter schools (collectively referred to as ‘charter schools’) are independent public schools established and operated under a charter from the local school board and in which students are enrolled or attend. These schools are commonly referred to as ‘brick-and-mortar’ charter schools and focus on teacher-led discussion and teacher knowledge imparted to students through face-to-face interaction at the schools’ physical facilities located within the boundaries of the school district that granted the charter.”
