  • Innovative Education Management’s (IEM) Parent Support
    Innovative Education Management’s (IEM) core value is a strong belief that the only way America’s schools are going to improve is if they become parent-driven once again. IEM focuses on support services parents need to be effective advocates for children. Resources, tools, and encouragement are provided to assist parents in taking back their child’s education.
  • The Center for Education Reform
    The Center for Education Reform (CER) creates opportunities for and challenges obstacles to better education for America's communities. CER advocates reforms that produce high standards, accountability and freedom, such as strong charter school laws, school choice programs for children most in need, common sense teacher initiatives, and proven instructional programs.
  • U.S. Department of Education, Charter School Program
    The Public Charter Schools Program supports the planning, development, and initial implementation of charter schools. Charter schools provide enhanced parental choice. The objective is to replace rules-based governance with performance-based accountability, thereby stimulating the creativity and commitment of teachers, parents, and citizens.
