| Funding Sources and Methods for K-12 Distance Education |
|
by Carla Lane, Ed.D., DLRN Senior Consultant
dated August 2, 2000
A summary of the innovative funding for distance learning at the state level.
"The majority of the states are using what has become traditional funding for distance learning. This includes general education funds, lottery generated funds (which in most cases does not increase the educational funding but relieves the state funds by the amount that the lottery adds) e-rate funds, Challenge grants, State Challenge grants, Star Schools. A limited group relies heavily on corporate and foundation donations."

| U.S. Charter Schools - Grant Resources For Starting Your Own School |
|
| Charter schools are nonsectarian public schools of choice that operate with freedom from many of the regulations that apply to traditional public schools. The "charter" establishing each such school is a performance contract detailing the school's mission, program, goals, students served, methods of assessment, and ways to measure success. The length of time for which charters are granted varies, but most are granted for 3-5 years. At the end of the term, the entity granting the charter may renew the school's contract. Charter schools are accountable to their sponsor-- usually a state or local school board-- to produce positive academic results and adhere to the charter contract. The basic concept of charter schools is that they exercise increased autonomy in return for this accountability. They are accountable for both academic results and fiscal practices to several groups: the sponsor that grants them, the parents who choose them, and the public that funds them. |
