NACSA Celebrates 2011 National Charter Schools
Authorizing is essential to achieving high-quality charter schools. The work of authorizing has never been more visible or more valued than it is right now. From Congress to state legislatures, the work of authorizers is recognized as a key component of charter school quality. We celebrate the work of authorizers and the difficult, yet essential, work that authorizers tackle.
In recognition of 2011 National Charter Schools Week, we asked several NACSA staff members to comment and provide tips on the five pillars of NACSA's Principles & Standards for Quality Charter School Authorizing. Their video responses are below.
