The annual Charter Schools Week project brings together parents, board members, school leaders, and advocates from across Michigan to stand up for charter schools and students, as well as celebrate our movement together. Thank you to everyone who participated in CSW 2023. CSW2024 will be May 13-17, 2024!
Charter Day at the Capitol directly connects us with the decision makers in Lansing, showcasing the vibrancy, passion and diversity of our movement - and we can't wait to see you this year! CDAC 2024 is just one piece of our week-long 2024 Charter Schools Week celebration.
Registration + Check In. If you pre-registered, you'll grab your 2023 CDAC t-shirt.
Our Capitol Steps program will begin, and last about 45 minutes. Our guest speakers and honorees include diverse charter stakeholders from across the Mitten!
Lunch on the Capitol Lawn
Hand-written letters are a great way to connect with your local legislators, and our plan is to gather as many letters from charter students, parents and educators as we can - then deliver them to the offices (or to the inboxes) of as many lawmakers as possible. These letters should be personal, and should help your lawmaker get a sense of why your school is so important to your community. Download the template below to participate!
Are you a charter teacher, parent, leader or board member wanting to share your story? Apply to "takeover" MAPSA's social media channels during CSW23! If chosen you will 1) be granted limited access to MAPSA's social media channels, and 2) will be asked to post several pieces of photo/video content throughout their assigned day to show off their school/share their MI Charter "Why".
