In Georgia, many school districts have lost students - where there are no charter schools at all. Families decided that they wanted something different (homeschooling, microschools, private schools). We have a unique opportunity to offer public schools that provide a different kind of education that families are asking for. Most charter schools in our state are centered around Atlanta, with large areas of the state (including the Atlanta region) without any charter schools. Make no mistake - we do not need charter schools for the sake of having more charter schools. We need community-responsive charter schools that meet children's needs and enhance a community's roster of public schools.

I designed the annual report for Children's Peace Project! Take a peak😃 https://lnkd.in/ew43GUEZ So grateful for this nonprofit and its dedication to supporting #education in low-resourced areas. CPP has given me the opportunity to continue my late aunt's work in improving education for Haiti's most vulnerable youth while remaining engaged with a community that means so much to me. In the health financing courses I attended while completing my master's in #globalhealth, we often spoke about the poverty cycle, it's connection to education, and it's role in perpetuating poor health and economic outcomes -- both at community/national and individual levels. True to it's circular nature, it can be difficulty to know which factors to target in order to improve conditions. However, there are centuries' worth of evidence that speak to the power of formal education in uplifting the individual and their communities. While chronic mismanagement has and continues to threaten the future of Haiti's youth, CPP provides hope to those who need it the most. Students at our partner school are aiming to be future teachers, health providers, lawyers, agronomists, mechanics. This is what #capacitybuilding looks like, and I can't wait to see what they all accomplish!
