A dozen public charter schools in Oregon are virtual, meaning the majority of their students receive instruction and clock in the required numberof school hours by taking online courses. Most core courses for subjects such as English language arts, math and science are not offered in a physical location. Charter schools are run by a group of parents, teachers or community members, functioning under a contract with a local school district board. Like any other public school, they’re funded by taxpayer dollars. Because the school is publicly funded, parents don’t pay for tuition.
