WE ARE CHANGING LIVES, REVITALIZING COMMUNITIES AND SOLVING OUR NATION'S EDUCATIONAL CRISIS. THE PROBLEM The public school system in our country is failing. We once were in a position of educational leadership, but now our nation is ranked #22 globally. Low performing schools perpetuate a downward spiral financially and educationally. There is an urgent need to provide access to excellent public charter schools. THE SOLUTION Access to high quality public charter schools is the answer.
