The Call for Greatness A Message from our President . . .  Have you noticed the momentum?  The determination among many in Michigan to give children more?  Leaders across the state are taking action to create better schools, whether they're part of the traditional educational system or chartered through an authorizer. As educators in the charter public school movement, you are living out the call for greatness by providing the needed education reform that goes above and beyond the ordinary.  In fact, more than 5,000 teachers are doing something greater for over 100,000 charter public students who have an oppourtunity to receive a high quality, 21st century education that embraces the way today's kids learn. I encourage you to keep leading forward, showing others what the "Call for Greatness" means to you as an educator. Daniel L. Quisenberry MAPSA President
