Stand Up. Speak Out.

Millions of kids in our country don’t have access to a good education. Most of them are from low-income communities and many are children of color. It doesn’t have to be that way.

K–12 public charter schools are a vital part of the solution, offering families more choices and students better opportunities.

We are working hard so that all kids can have access to an excellent education. In Connecticut, our students receive over $4,000 less per pupil than the state average, despite the fact that we serve a significantly higher-needs population. Schools like Achievement First Hartford Academy, one of the leading K–12 public charter schools in the state, are working every day to close this opportunity gap and provide a path to success.

Meanwhile, in New York and Rhode Island, unfair funding and facilities challenges make it difficult to open new charter schools and serve more students. We need your help to change that.
