National Charter Schools Week (NCSW) is just around the corner—May 5th-11th. During National Charter Schools Week, we celebrate achievements in the school house and the state house. These achievements could not have been possible without the commitment of teachers, leaders, parents and advocates from all parts of the country. Check out our toolkit for ways you can participate in NCSW!
“The mission of Hope Academy is to provide students who have dropped out of a formal educational program, as well as those contemplating dropping out, an opportunity to obtain a quality education leading to a diploma… Hope Academy continues to excel by surpassing the State of Missouri’s average graduation rate of 86.7 percent with a 93.1 percent rate… The personal growth and knowledge I have received while working at an innovative and evolving charter school are skills I will be able to use for the rest of my life, much like the skills Hope Academy’s students gain.” —Zachary Bassin, Director of Operations and Development at Hope Academy Charter School in Kansas City, Missouri
