Citywide Strategies

Charter schools are leading innovation in cities across the country and increasing access to high-quality educational options in urban neighborhoods. To build on the strength of the charter movement, several urban communities are embracing charter schools as an integral component of citywide reform initiatives that are designed to improve the quality of public education for all students. This section features resources related to citywide strategies, including those from a May 2011 event focused on the topic that was hosted by the National Charter School Resource Center.
