Salem Academy Charter School is a member of the Massachusetts Charter Public School Association ("MCPSA").  For more information about MCPSA, please click on the logo above.

Massachusetts Commonwealth Charter Schools are independently managed public schools that operate under a five-year charter granted by the Massachusetts Board of Education.  Parents, teachers, non-profit organizations, community leaders, or others may start charter schools. The schools have the freedom to organize around a core mission, curriculum, theme, or teaching method, and are allowed to control their own budgets and hire (and fire) teachers and staff. In return for this freedom, a charter school must demonstrate strong academic results within five years or their charter will not be renewed.
