One of the greatest challenges facing public charter schools across the country is finding and financing facilities. The citizens of Kentucky have paid for many years for our educational facilities across the state, and often they are unused or underutilized. We should remove any obstacles from making use of these public properties for use in public education. This, of course, includes all public charter schools.
7) Allow Public Charter Schools Access to Unused Public School Building Space
To help alleviate this problem, we recommend that the state provide to public charter schools a right of first
refusal to purchase or lease for fair market value a closed or unused portion of any public school facility. We should make use of every resource available to us to provide more educational opportunity, especially when the associated costs are negligible.
