A proposito di questo titolo

The Charter Schools Program (CSP) is the only source of federal funding that supports the growth of charter schools to meet the needs of students and families. In our Dear New Leader Series geared toward educating elected officials on important charter school topics, we break down the CSP and discuss its impact on schools and students. The National Alliance for Public Charter Schools’ Director of Policy, Fiona Sheridan-McIver and the President & CEO of Helix Community Schools in Louisiana, Preston Castille, share more about this vital program on the Get Schooled on Public Education podcast.
