When our educational landscape has a variety of public school options for families, every student can attend a school that meets their needs.
Authorizers have a significant impact on shaping which schools get the opportunity to serve children and families.
So why are there still so many students without access to a high-quality public school that delivers on the promise to give every child the education they need to succeed?
In our new report, Innovative and Diverse Charter Models: Addressing Policy Challenges, NACSA seeks to answer this very question. We gathered insights from authorizers and partners to:
- Understand why unique school models get approved or rejected; and
- Explore potential policy solutions to these challenges.
This report is the basis for future NACSA work as we continue on our journey of centering communities to ensure all students thrive.
