Statement on SCOTUS decision to hear Oklahoma case

Statement from M. Karega Rausch, Ph.D., President & CEO of NACSA on the decision by the Supreme Court of the United States to hear the case of St. Isidore of Seville Catholic Virtual School’s application to operate as a religious charter school:

“The National Association of Charter School Authorizers (NACSA) has consistently affirmed that charter schools are public schools. They are a part of each state’s system of public schools and thus must ensure equal protection and equal access for all students. Students attending public charter schools must continue to enjoy the same civil and constitutional rights and protections as any peer attending a district-run public school.”
