Cyber School Costs

In developing the budget process many small rural schools face the battle of the ever increasing costs of Cyber/Charter Schools. Since the state doesn not reimburse the schools for more than 30% of the actual costs there is an increasing concern on how to address this issue.

From what I can see in the upcoming years small School Districts will look to developing a Cyber School within a school concept in an attempt to bring back currently outplaced Cyber/Charter Students.

If this concept takes root and succeeds this will provide an educational path for larger school districts to follow in order to address the ever growing costs of Cyber Education, while providing a new medium of learning in-house.

Several years ago, the Altoona School District created its own cyber school and allowed surrounding schools to send students there. They all said it cut down on their cyber school costs.
