What We Do

The National Alliance for Public Charter Schools is the leading organization committed to advancing quality, growth and sustainability for the charter school movement. Our integrated approach to advocacy and national reach allows us to make significant impacts at both the federal and state levels.
  • We speak and advocate for hundreds of thousands of students hoping for the chance to attend a charter school. 
  • We provide assistance to state charter school associations and resource centers, advocate for improved public policies, and serve as the united voice for a large and diverse movement.
  • We focus on key policy priorities like replicating and expanding high-quality charter schools, lifting arbitrary "caps" on charter growth, and closing the funding gap between charters and other public schools.

Quality, Sustainability, Growth


NAPCS is committed to the following principals regarding the growth and expansion of public charter schools:

  • Improving the academic and operational quality of public charter schools so that "charter" is recognized as a reliable brand
  • Clearing the legislative path for increased growth so high-quality charter schools can meet parent demand
  • Securing the sustainability of charter schools by moving toward fiscal equity in public funding, particularly for charter facilities
