In 2022, Education Voters of PA filed a Right to Know request to examine how Commonwealth Charter Academy (CCA), Pennsylvania’s largest cyber charter school, spends public moneys to reimburse families for activities and classes outside of the school day. After CCA refused to provide the requested records, we represented Education Voters of PA in the Dauphin County Court of Common Pleas and won, with the court ordering CCA to produce the requested documents showing the flow of taxpayer funds from CCA.
CCA has appealed the decision to the Commonwealth Court. We are representing Education Voters of PA for the appeal and will continue to stand with partners like Education Voters of PA to demand transparency and accountability from cyber charter schools in Pennsylvania.
