Mission: The charter school is committed to a framework in which mankind’s first and most basic school, the home, is supported by the community as a viable education alternative. The charter school is a non-sectarian partnership school between students, parents, professional educators and community members where as many families as desire will customize an education for their children. It utilizes a school without walls wherein parents are to bear the primary responsibility for the management of their children’s education.
Purpose: We live in an ever-changing world. Every day we discover new opportunities for learning. New tools, technology, methods and ways of thinking demand a more flexible and open model for educational program development. The Family Partnership Charter School provides a framework for the responsible use of public resources in which students, parents and educators can make the most of these opportunities.
