Dr. Pollack made his presentation to the board the morning of Nov. 18, about the need for and merits of charter schools and Eastern's role in them.
Charter schools offer an alternative to public schools.
Any student in the state of Michigan is eligible to attend the charter school of their choice. Each school offers a unique curriculum in addition to the state mandated one. Performing Arts will be another component of this school. Other areas of focus include Community Service and Career Education. Initially the AALC will have K-8 grades.
