Six Ways To Help Your School

  1. Encourage someone whose child is struggling academically to explore new options, including charter schools.
  2. Tell three friends/acquaintances a month why your school is so great. Talk about your school at the grocery store, work, neighborhood picnic etc.
  3. Send a thank-you note to a teacher or administrator.
  4. Nominate a teacher or your school for an award.
  5. Send a letter to the editor of your local newspaper. Describe your family's experience at your charter school.
  6. Send your newly elected state legislators a letter asking for support of children, charter schools and educational freedom.

Tell your child, "I'm proud you are mine!"

Our children are SPECIAL!  Tell us the story of how your child has benefitted from Charter Education, a special award or achievement.  E-mail us at mapsa@charterschools.org
