👉 Charter computing is a public-private partnership model where local educational authorities or charter schools operate their own technology infrastructure and network services, such as internet connectivity, to support their educational missions. This approach allows for customized technology solutions tailored to specific school needs, often at reduced costs compared to traditional public school IT systems. Charter schools leverage these services to enhance learning experiences, provide digital resources, and improve connectivity, while maintaining operational independence. The charter model encourages innovation and efficiency by aligning technology investments directly with the educational goals of the schools, fostering a more agile and responsive IT environment.
