This series will seek to tell the other side of the charter public school story in a way that will bring context to what we believe are truths about charter public schools in general, and specifically about high performing networks, like our own KIPP SoCal. In doing so, we hope you join us in refocusing the narrative on what truly matters: a great public school education for all of our children, regardless of zip code, income, language, or ability.  

Just like traditional public schools, charter schools come in all shapes and sizes, but in California one truth is that charter public schools are 100% free, 100% public, 100% open to all.
