A charter school’s attempt to weather challenges facing districts across Oregon may be backfiring

Valley Inquiry Charter School in Salem is going “full charter” with its staff. The board hopes it leads to stable leadership long-term, but the immediate aftermath shows high costs to the community.

It seems like every year, Valley Inquiry Charter School has a new principal. State records show the Salem charter is on track to have its fourth principal in five years this fall. Board members say the turnover is even higher.
