How To Open a New School
Congratulations on your interest in founding a charter school in Pennsylvania! With 120 charter schools operating in the state today, you are in good company. If you are just beginning this exploration, your first stop should be the Pennsylvania Department of Education website that links to all the rules regarding establishing and maintaining a charter school in Pennsylvania.
Founders are encouraged to join PCCS as a Future School Member. With our discounted rate for future schools, you will have access to all of our PCCS Member's Only information that gives you more detail on school start up. This includes access to the PCCS Resource Center; which is a source for affordable charter school experts ready to help future schools, from the application phase to the implementation process.
If you would like to become a PCCS Member, you can find additional information on the
