Opinion: Connecticut Charters Break Through in Historic Legislative Session
Connecticut's legislative session approved four new charter schools, established a special funding fund, and improved benefits for charter paraprofessionals, marking a significant breakthrough for the state's charter sector. The success was attributed to a collaborative effort among education advocacy organizations, including The Mind Trust Connecticut, Alliance for Connecticut Charter Schools, ConnCAN, and the School and State Finance Project.
