Charter Management Organizations

Charter Management Organizations (CMOs) are non-profits that operate multiple charter schools as well as launch new ones. Along with their for-profit counterparts, Education Management Organizations (EMOs), individual CMOs have quickly become some of the biggest names in public education: KIPP, Rocketship Charter Schools, and Green Dot Schools, just to name a few. The National Charter School Resource Center provides access to high-quality resources for and about CMOs. Included in this sub-Focus Area are research reports, guides for CMOs considering replication, and resources on other pertinent topics.
