Support SDGVA

Charter schools are similar to public schools in that they are eligible to receive federal and state funding to support operational costs. However, these funding sources are limited and for many charter schools that serve children from low-income communities it is only enough to support basic academic programs on site. Many charter schools are unable to offer incentive programs such as music, art, and technology – or to hire full time counselors, nurses, or academic support staff without significant donations by individuals, corporations, community organizations and philanthropic foundations.
