Charter Review Board approves two new remote academies

By February 18, 2025 News

The Charter Schools Review Board (CSRB) met last Monday, considering renewals, remote academy applications, and amendment requests. The CSRB approved remote academy applications for two schools: STARS Charter and Tilley Charter.

The CSRB also voted to approve renewals for these four schools:

  • Doral Academy (10-year renewal)
  • Washington Montessori (10-year renewal)
  • Lakeside Charter Academy (3-year renewal)
  • United Community School (3-year renewal)

The CSRB delayed the renewal vote on Movement Freedom until March, when school leaders will come for questions.

In addition, the CSRB approved these amendment requests for two schools in the Ready to Open process:

  • Third year delay for West Triangle High School
  • Relocation and enrollment reduction for GO BIG

Finally, the CSRB heard presentations from three stipulation schools: Paul R. Brown Leadership Academy, Monroe Academy, and Rocky Mount Prep.

The next meeting for the CSRB is March 10. Read detailed coverage of this month’s meeting from EdNC.
