I am not sure rent is a factor as charter schools get primary funding from the state. That is not to say the Developer has not contributed.

Maybe starting a new thread on charter school funding in general and TV's charter school in particular would yield more info of interest.

BTW, high-jacking is difficult to avoid. One subject leads to another and things can get off track. They soon get back on.
