Why
Charter
Schools
Matter
We believe the opportunity to educate students is a privilege and a public trust. In exchange for that privilege and the autonomy they are afforded, public charter schools are held highly accountable.
We are raising the bar of excellence and ensuring all children in Tennessee have access to high-quality education!
Together we're driving change in public education!
