Tell the Massachusetts State Legislature: Lift the Cap on Public Charter Schools

Massachusetts legislators have the chance to do something great for families this year: lift the cap on public charter schools.

The cap on public charter schools is shutting thousands of children out of great public schools that they desperately need.

Public charter schools give families the option of choosing a better public school when the schools in their community are underperforming — but Massachusetts has an unfair and outdated cap on the number of kids who can attend these great public schools.

Lifting the cap should be a no-brainer. There are 37,000 children attending public charter schools in Massachusetts. But 37,000 more are stuck on charter school waiting lists. It's time we listened to families, and gave them access to the great public schools that they want.

Tell the legislature that it's time to act. Add your name and stand with us to lift the cap on public charter schools.
