Get Involved.
Despite 20 years of history in New Mexico and serving over 25,000 students each year, our charter schools are in severe danger of funding cuts and new laws that restrict their ability to serve students. We need our broader community of supporters to be informed, and get involved.

Why Public Charter Schools?
Charter schools in New Mexico are public schools, and follow the same laws for finances and operations as traditional public schools. The difference is in their educational model, where a small number of exemptions to the public school code allow for dynamic education models to be offered. The charter school movement began with a small number of school leaders looking to offer innovative education opportunities to our students.
Today, over 25,000 students attend a charter school in New Mexico, joining the approximately 1 million students who attend a public charter school in 40 states. New Mexico’s public charter schools are leading the way forward for innovation in public education, supporting innovative school models such as individualized learning and STEM education. Charter schools provide college credit opportunities in high school, culturally relevant programs and arts education. Most importantly, they act as the vehicle to reform the traditional “one size fits all” model of education.
