“At the moment, American achievement scores are falling and gaps are growing, but it wasn’t that long ago when the data were going in a much more positive direction.”
Loved talking about the promise of charter schools and policies that lead to charter school growth with @MichaelPetrilli, Senator Calatayu (FL) @AlexisMCalatayu and Sen. Linda Rogers (IN). Freedom, finance and facilities are key! @charteralliance

Congrats to @ninasrees for being inducted into the charter school Hall of Fame!! We wouldn’t be where we are today as a movement without her. #NCSC24
So great to hear our incoming CEO at #NCSC24 share her vision and passion to fight for charter schools “it’s wild that after 30 years of demonstrated success… we still have to fight for funding and autonomy”
