Your voice matters and Congress needs to hear from you! We need to urge Congress to boost Charter Schools Program (CSP) funding to $500 million next year to meet the growing demand for public school choice, supported by polling that shows that 75% of parents would choose this option if available. An increase in charter school funding will ensure that more parents have the option to do so. Despite its importance, federal funding for charter school growth has remained stagnant for the past five years. Even worse, President Biden’s proposed budget for FY 2025 slashes CSP funding by nearly 10%, endangering charter school progress. Contact your Member of Congress now to safeguard and expand this vital program.

#VoteToTransformLives: Education To improve children and young people's experiences at school, we call for better supports that provide a link between the community and school. This quote from a young person we work with illustrates perfectly why this support is needed. #TransformingLives #CommunityEngagement #SchoolSupport #YouthEmpowerment #StudentSuccess 🏫 🧩

As you embark on the journey of petitioning to open or replicate a new charter school, one question should prevail: what drives the need for this school? It's all about the community. We recognize specific needs and aim to fill those gaps. Our mission is fueled by the desire to provide high-quality education where it's needed most. Diligently study nearby schools, their offerings and enrollment, ensuring that your school and program stand out. What sets your school apart from the rest? Specialized arts? A robust athletic program? Before you and your team embark on the journey of opening a new school, ask yourself and your team these questions. Know your goals and your mission- that's your compass! #charterschools #educationforall #missiondriven

What are the rituals in your community? Rituals are actions that carry specific meaning for members of a community. Often, they are used to publicly recognize the contributions of certain members. This strengthens the bonds within the community, both by showing appreciation for the members being recognized, but also by inspiring those who are giving the recognition. Rituals are all around us. For example: College graduation ceremonies are a a ritual, recognizing the accomplishments of those in the student community who have earned their degrees. Mother's Day is a a ritual, recognizing the important role that mothers play in our communities. Worship services are a ritual -- whether they take place at a church, a synagogue, or a mosque -- which unite the community members. If you have a community, what are its rituals? If you are thinking of launching a community, what will its rituals be? #communitybuilding

Over the years I have had to combat so many of the dumb assumptions people and organizations have spouted off about charter public schools. In one corner you have that we only serve gifted white religious students, in another corner is empty because special education students are not allowed to attend. Both of these assumptions are wrong. Just because you say it's true doesn't magically make it so. Too many politicians, especially those in the Golden State, are purposely ignorant about charter public schools so that they can continue to accept the endorsement and cash from labor groups that never support what is best for students. Let's be clear, charter public schools are open to all, help their authorizing school districts meet the pressing need of all students in the community and have been given a bad wrap because most are a success. Stop believing the lies and make plans this week to call a charter public school in your community and plan a visit. These schools are best enjoyed in person. Don't have students? That's okay! Most charter leaders want to meet and gain the support of the community so you definitely fit the bill. Add to that, most leaders would love your interest and philanthropic interest so visiting a charter public school can seal that deal. 💚 #charterschool #publiceducation #misinformation

Solid tips for classroom teachers of ANY grade level but who is expected to provide the clear bins for materials, the shoe organizer for headphones, or the pencils/erasers/paper for the supply area? I have yet to work in a school bldg that provided such things for teachers. Typically I'm given an annual budget of $100-$150 that does not go very far when using a district-mandated vendor. Depending on the school, I've even had to apply that budget to copy paper and tech replacement. With many districts shifting to #PersonalizedLearning models, one of the biggest expenses teachers take on to support #StudentAgency is #FlexibleSeating. I've personally spent THOUSANDS dollars scrapping up beanbags, lap desks, scoop rockers, yoga balls, and cushions through used marketplaces. And don't get me started on border... As a virtual teacher, though, those investments are now obsolete. This video was created by a MS principal so I'm hoping he has purchased these items for his own staff to follow his recommendations. How much assistance do you receive to create an optimized learning space? #MakeTeachingSustainable
