What is National Charter School Week? 
National Charter Schools Week in 2025 for Michigan is from May 12-18. The week is a celebration of public charter schools and the educators and advocates who support them. It also serves as a reminder of the importance of public education options for all children.

GLLA is a tuition-free virtual public charter school serving students in 6th-12th grade across the state of Michigan. Charter schools are free, independently-operated public schools that have the flexibility and autonomy to meet their students' needs. We are a proud partner of Central Michigan University's Center for Charter schools.
