About this directory
Who runs this site, where the information comes from, and how it stays neutral.
Newark Charter Schools is an independent directory of charter schools in Newark, New Jersey, built for parents and caregivers. It is not run by a school, a school network, the Newark Board of Education, or the State of New Jersey.
What this site does
We collect public information about Newark charter schools (grades, campuses, contact details, enrollment counts, and how to apply) and organize it into profiles that are easy to compare. Closed and merged schools keep historical profiles so old links and records still make sense.
We do not rank schools, recommend one school over another, or accept payment from schools for placement or coverage. Every school is described with the same fields and the same format.
Where the information comes from
- New Jersey Department of Education enrollment data and official school records
- Newark Common App, participating schools, campuses, and enrollment contacts
- NJ School Performance Reports
- School websites and school-provided information
Details like campuses, hours, and application routes can change; always confirm with the school before relying on them. Profiles link to the school’s own source pages where possible.
Help keep it accurate
Schools move, phone numbers change, and new campuses open. If you spot something out of date, use the update form on any school profile. Every report is reviewed before changes are published.
