The app was introduced Saturday at the fourth annual Charter School Expo. It provides information on a school's performance, application deadlines, program offerings and transportation options.

The free MyDCcharters mobile app was launched for Android, Blackberry, Java and Windows platforms. It's coming soon for the iPhone.

The public charter school board oversees 57 schools, serving more than 35,000 students.
