Florida greenlights charter schools to share space with public schools under new expansion plan
Florida’s Board of Education has approved a major expansion of charter schools, allowing them to share space with traditional public schools under the “schools of hope” program. The move, backed by Gov. Ron DeSantis, aims to broaden school choice, use underutilized facilities, and serve students from struggling schools, though critics warn of resource diversion and operational challenges.
