After spending more than 16 years founding and operating a number of successful charter schools in the United States, Dr. John von Rohr publishes a new how-to guide titled "How to Start and Successfully Operate a Charter School: An In-Depth Guide Detailing How to Start and Operate a Successful Charter School" (published by Trafford Publishing).
Von Rohr's new book offers detailed information about the founding, operation and maintenance of charter schools from the ground up. Topics include how to make big-picture choices about the school's location, curriculum and faculty, while also aiding with more in-depth decisions such as school lunch programs, student retention, dress codes and more.
Appendices offer readers even more comprehensive guidance by way of five-year sample budgets, facility and modular floor plans, and sample faculty contracts, among other useful, real-life information from von Rohr's experience as a charter school operator and founder.
An excerpt from "How to Start and Successfully Operate a Charter School":
"The charter school movement in the United State has already proven the time is right for more schools of choice. It is my hope that this book will serve as a valuable source of information for both start-up charters and those already in operation; a resource that will lead you to a high degree of success in your personal endeavors to improve educational opportunities in this country."
