Mystic Valley Regional Charter School is a public charter school serving students from communities north of Boston in the Greater Boston area. Charter schools in Massachusetts are tuition-free public schools that operate independently under a charter granted by the state, and this one draws students from surrounding towns in the Mystic Valley region. The school takes its name from the Mystic River, which flows through the area, linking the region's suburban and urban communities to Boston Harbor. As a regional charter, enrollment is determined by lottery rather than by residential attendance zones.
