The Hawaii State Public Charter Schools (PCS) are public schools of choice for students and parents in the State of Hawaii. The parent may choose to enroll their child in any PCS regardless of whether the child has special needs or not.
When students with disabilities (SWD) are enrolled in a PCS, or any other public school, the Hawaii State Department of Education (HIDOE), as authorized by the Board of Education (BOE), is required to ensure the implementation of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 2004 (IDEA).
