Welcome
Welcome to the National Charter Schools Founders Library!
We've made it our mission to collect and capture the history of the charter schools movement for future generations to enjoy and learn from.
History matters! We know it's an invaluable asset for future leaders who are working to ensure all kids have access to a quality education. These historical documents and oral histories from the charter founders will enable us to learn from the past and better shape our future. Get involved and help us continue to capture this history!
Hear it from the Founders!
