2025 Legislative Session Recap
This virtual event will recap the 2025 legislative session. We will discuss final outcomes for bills related to K-12 public education, including charter public schools.

What We Are Advocating For
Funding Equity
The average student at a Washington State Charter public school receives 25% less in ongoing funding than a student at a traditional public school. This funding gap means there are fewer resources for students who need that funding most. This inequity persists because charter public schools are not entitled to local property tax levies, creating a funding gap from $1,500 to $3,000 per student, and do not receive dedicated facilities funding.
