Wisconsin DPI Awards $13.5 Million for Wisconsin Charter Schools

Tuesday, June 15th, 2021 -- 9:06 AM

(WMTV) The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction announced approval of $13.5 million for Wisconsin charter schools.

The funds, in the form of 19 federal grants, are for the purpose of planning, opening or expanding charter schools in Wisconsin, according to a DPI release. This is the fourth round of funding the U.S. Department of Education’s five-year grant program has provided to Wisconsin’s charter schools.

The program provides funding for three purposes including planning and implementation grants for charter schools opening in 2022; implementation grants for charter schools that recently opened or will open in 2021; and grants to aid the expansion of existing charter schools.

The program prioritizes schools serving educationally disadvantaged students and focuses on grades six through 12.
