Resources for Authorizers

In Wisconsin every district school board is able to authorize public charter school(s) in their district.  For a public charter school to be high quality, the authorizer must be high quality.  Below are links that are helpful to understand the work of authorizing a public charter school.

National Association of Charter School Authorizers : NACSA is the leading authority on public charter school authorizing best practices and authorizer development.  A terrific source for all districts interested in public charter schools.
