Podría ser. No veo que haya un término para referirse a charter. La idea sería Estados con los que se concerta fondos.
En la Argentina también usamos escuelas charter.

privileged states or founder states


Explanation:
Charter can mean:

5. Special privilege or immunity.

So it could refer to some privileged states.

On the other hand a charter member of an organization or entity is a founder member, so that could refer to thé founder states of the USA, tho I would need to know the context to be sure.
