Delaware School Choice

Choose the school that your child attends if the feeder school is not an appropriate fit for the your child.

The families of 16,088 students made a charter school choice for the 2018 – 19 school year. Have you made your choice for the 2019-20 school year yet? While many of our schools have already held lotteries to fill their spots due to having more applications than spots, some still have space available.

Need a space and not sure what your options are? Check out our School Locator on the dashboard below. Put in your address, and all of the charter schools close to you will come up. Or click on the grade range that you are looking for – need an Elementary School, choose that option and our elementary charters will come up. If you want to talk to someone about your choices and open spaces, call our office – 302.778.5999

What is a Charter School?

Charter schools are independent, tuition-free public schools, serving students from kindergarten to 12th grade. The “charter” establishing each school is a contract, which states the school’s mission, program and measurable goals. Charter schools may be authorized by the State Department of Education or a local school district. They are accountable to their authorizer, parents and the public. Charter schools are different from traditional public schools in that they can only remain open as long as they deliver the results that they promise.
