Abstract:  Charter schools are in many cases given more freedom to chart their own course in employment relations than are many other public school employers. There remain limits, however, many drawn by law. This guide is designed to help charter schools develop personnel policies and practices that meet federal, state, and local regulations. The employment guide reviews the areas of legal regulation common to all employers but also examines personnel issues that are specific to charter schools. Several online resources are included, such as an employment policy and contract checklist to ensure that you have sound policies on the most critical employment topics.
