Bronx Preparatory Charter School is a public school that is tuition free but operates independently from local school boards. They are given greater freedom in exchange for accountability. Bronx Prep is overseen by the SUNY Charter Schools Institute and the charter is up for renewal every five years. Renewal is based on meeting pre-negotiated academic and other performance objectives. Bronx Prep's charter was renewed in the 2005 for a full five-year term. The charter school movement is one of the fastest growing education reform efforts in the United States. During its first year, Bronx Prep was chronicled by the New York Times and since then, the school’s innovative methods and student academic achievement have been featured on several national television programs and publications.
