Hi,
Do public elementary schools have annual fees or are they free? What are average fees? Also what is a charter school?
Thanks in advance!!

Hi Cje0001,

Public schools are free. They are paid for by the property taxes that a community pays.

A charter is also a public school, but they are independent of many of the rules that district schools are bound by.

For more information on charters, read some of the these articles: http://www.greatschools.org/search/contentSearch.page?q=charter

Thanks MagnetMum.
Are property taxes in addition to rent, if renting, or included in the rental fee and paid by the landlord?

The landlord pays the property tax and usually passes on the cost to the renter.
