Mayor Bloomberg & Chancellor Klein have made it a top priority to help support the sustainibility of charter schools in NYC.  It is the role of the Charter school office as an authorizing entity and a partnering district as dictated by Article 56 of the NYS Charter Act, to make available resources to help guide and support schools as they operate.  This support takes shape in many ways; from Technical Advisories to FAQs to Policy & Best Practice Models.  To that end , charter operators may review and download relevant resources pertaining to operations and support services. Some of these areas include Special Education Protocols & Policies, Public Finance Guidelines, Admissions & Placement Guidelines, Technology Systems Access, Food & Nutritional Services, Transportation, Facilities & Campus Managment Guidelines and many other topics.
