New charter school quality initiative
It’s just an announcement, and there are lots of things that could prevent any real action from taking place, but kudos to the California Charter Schools Association for being one of two state charter groups to join the National Association of Charter School Authorizers this morning in Washington to call for a renewed focus on charter school quality and — where necessary — closings. See the Huffington Post article about the announcement here. Next steps? Identify and then close or nonrenew charters that aren’t performing.
