A Costa Mesa, Calif. charter school is under fire from the Orange County Department of Education (OCDE) for allegedly collecting funds from students, exaggerating its daily attendance rate, and utilizing a building without the proper permits.

The International School for Science and Culture (ISSAC) was established in 2019 and has since collected funds from students in the form of child care fees. Its teacher aids supervised children for $30 each per day.
