This event, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Education, will bring together educational professionals committed to expanding high quality charter schools and increasing the national understanding of the charter school model. The purposes of the showcase include: expanding the national dialogue about how states can use chartering as an intervention in low performing schools; identifying successful state practices using chartering to comply with NCLB; providing local and state leaders with current knowledge about successful charter school models and practices; and sharing information about available partnerships, initiatives, and technical assistance. Registration for the April event is limited.
