Q: Are charter schools public schools? A: Yes! Charter schools, including Cedar Rapids Prep, are tuition-free public schools that follow the same academic, financial, and governance standards as traditional public schools. ✅ Held to high standards—we submit annual reports to ensure accountability. ✅ No tuition, no barriers—every student is welcome, no entrance exams required. ✅ State-funded, not-for-profit—just like district public schools, but with more flexibility to meet student needs. 💡 Don’t let the myths fool you—see the facts for yourself! 🔗 Learn more & apply today: https://cedarrapidsprep.org/apply/
