Chesapeake Lighthouse Foundation (CLF) operates as an education administration organization that oversees multiple charter schools in Maryland, aiming to expand access to charter schooling within the state. Based in Laurel, Maryland, CLF administers schools across two counties and serves thousands of students through its network, including Chesapeake Science Point Charter School in Anne Arundel County and Chesapeake Math & IT Academies in Prince George’s County. The organization positions itself within the charter school sector, managing operations for its campuses and coordinating with local districts to provide educational options that align with state charter mandates and public school standards. With a staff size described in the mid-teens to low hundreds, CLF functions as a regional operator focused on growing and sustaining public charter education in Maryland. A recent development includes a partnership with Prince George’s County Public Schools, which reflects ongoing collaboration with district-run systems to recruit leadership for its schools.
