In 1997 there was a proposal by a group of townspeople lead by Susan Dalton to create The Andover Classical Charter School to alleviate overcrowding in the Andover middle schools. The school was to use the Hirsch Goal Setting model. The proposed location was the Franciscan Center on River Road. The school was to be a Commonwealth Charter School (on that is not governed by local school committee) as opposed to a Horace Mann Charter School (governed by local school committee).
The State Department of Education would not award a charter to the Andover Classical Charter School calling the teaching methods proposed too progressive.
