[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just posted. This is probably the closest to a charter - a successful one, that is. The elementary charter was set up for failure.  But bc this was a grassroots effort, it gained enough momentum & partners to expand. So it’s funded by MCPS, the county, and other organizations.

The director does indeed get paid by mcps for running a program. RICA is similar in that it’s a county school funded in part by the state. [/quote]

I don't think it's a charter school. I think it's a tutoring/academic support program.[/quote]

I didn't say it was.  I said it was the closest thing to one.  However, it functions in the same way. (I have had experience with charters.  So I know how they work.)  Hiring Barkley to run it is not unlike hiring another MCPS administrator to run a full blown charter.  So I'm sure the guidelines for GBTLA  are similar to those found in a charter.

It has a board, too - http://www.saturdayschool.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Annual-Report-2015-Final.pdf (pg. 17).  So there is outside oversight.

I think the program is successful based on what I've heard from friends whose children have attended.  [/quote]
