Dothan’s first charter school was poised to get a final stamp of approval this week, but state charter leaders are now walking back previous support.
In a previous forum, the proposal received a mix of feedback from community members and district leaders. Local school officials told the local news that they projected a $3 million loss from potential enrollment shifts. Some parents, however, said they felt the school would provide opportunities to students who have been left behind by the district.
If eventually approved, the Barnabas school will be governed by leaders from a network of local, predominantly Black churches and community organizations, who plan to open the school’s doors to about 350 students by the fall of 2023. Barnabas leaders say their approach to funding, culturally relevant curriculum, individualized support and school culture will help close those gaps. They acknowledged, however, that the proposal would be a tough sell in a state with a fairly new charter law, and planned to involve families of all races from the start.
“If those differences are not addressed, students will become disengaged, disheartened, and disinterested in the learning process,” the application stated. “That is the essence of inequity.”
