OPEN A SCHOOL WITH THE SCPCSD

Submit a simple letter indicating your intent to open a charter school with the South Carolina Public Charter School District.

All charter proposals this cycle must be submitted electronically via the SCDE’s online application. The SCDE will conduct a training session on the submission process for all applicants. For questions, please contact Kayla Audette at the SCDE at kaudette@ed.sc.gov or 803.734.2781. All applications are due no later than 5:00 p.m. on February 1, 2019. The SCPCSD requires the completion of additional documentation as part of your application. Please see below under What You’ll Need To Submit for more details.

Once the application is submitted, the SCPCSD Board of Trustees must hold a public hearing within 90 days to determine whether or not the group will be granted a charter.
