CONCORD, N.H.—Gov. John Lynch has approved more state aid to six charter schools struggling to stay open.

Lynch signed a law Friday that gives an extra $1,168 per pupil next year to state-approved schools that operate without local financial support. The aid is on top of the $3,832 in adequacy aid the schools will get per pupil, bringing their total state aid to $5,000 per pupil.

The charter schools are the Academy for Science and Design, Cocheco Arts and Technology, New Hampshire Equestrian Academy, Seacoast, Strong Foundations and Surry Village.

The help does not come in time for a seventh school, the Franklin Career Academy, which closed at the end of the school year.
