A public charter school is proposed for The Hill
High-performing public and private schools on the Palos Verdes Peninsula may face an educational competitor if organizers of a charter school can open it by September.
So far, more than 70 families have expressed interest in TIP Academy Palos Verdes.
"We've been generating interest from the community, and it's been increasing rapidly," said Michael Schwerdtfeger, a founder and Rancho Palos Verdes resident with three children attending Mira Catalina Elementary.
The school would offer kindergarten through eighth-grade classes for about 225 students.
