Lake George Elementary Preschool

A charter school in Colorado is a school that is funded through district revenues but governed by a separate board. LGCS became a charter school in 1996, to allow our community greater autonomy in governance, finances and general operations. We are still a public school, but our employees are charter school employees, and our budget, policies and procedure are determined by our Charter School Board. We are unique in the state of Colorado, in that we were one of the first charter schools to be formed from previous district schools, operating in district buildings. Because of our unique status, we are considered "pioneers" among rural Colorado communities who wish to establish greater local autonomy for their schools. Being a charter school is just one more way that our school establishes itself as a true community school!
