Richmond’s Charter School Opens
Patrick Henry School of Science and Arts, the first charter school in Richmond, opened this year after a three-and-a-half-year effort to open. School organizers and city school officials were often at odds and it was doubtful theĀ school would even open. But it did and students now have a new school to call their own.











My many thanks to the folks who worked so hard to make this school happen, including past and present board members. Many of these folks didn’t even have school-age children, just a desire to provide another educational choice in our city.
