Maryland Public Charter School Program - School Facilities - Funding

Summary

The legislation tells the Interagency Commission on School Construction to give money straight to public charter schools for building upkeep, debt service, or rent. Starting in fiscal year 2028, the governor must budget an amount equal to the prior year's total charter enrollment multiplied by $1,600. This aims to give charter schools a reliable source of facility funding.
