Charter Schools Development Center (CSDC)

Congratulations to Community Outreach Academy (and the team at Gateway Community Charters) on the opening of their new school building! This former fitness club was adapted to provide bright new elementary classrooms in North Sacramento.

Educator burn out is REAL, but does it have to be? What if the words teaching and burn out stopped being synonymous and we created environments where educators could thrive, not just survive? I’m thrilled to be presenting at the 2024 Charter Schools Development Center (CSDC) conference in Sacramento, CA, alongside Dr. Nicole Assisi and Michelle Rainey to share some of our innovative solutions for tackling burnout and creating a sustainable future for our educators. 🌱👩🏫 .

Last week, I had an awesome experience serving as a Mentor with Charter Schools Development Center (CSDC)'s Leadership Intensive - a 4 day program geared toward rising charter school leaders. Robin Stout, Ed.D., Eduardo de Leon, Gayle Nadler, Jodi Jones, Michelle Hammons, Ed.D. and I enjoyed presenting and facilitating for ~60 leaders from across California!

The legislature passed a set of budget and related “trailer” bills this week that reflect a full budget package negotiated with the support of Governor Newsom and that amend a prior “placeholder” budget. The related trailer bills, including the 336-page education trailer bill, have not yet made it to the governor’s desk, though we presume he will sign them into law. CSDC’s Founder & Executive Director, Eric Premack, has more on the full budget package for CSDC Members here: https://lnkd.in/giS7xxwb And be sure to join Eric and CSDC’s team of charter specialists on July 17 for the Adopted Budget and Summer Update Webinar—the culmination of our 2024 Budget, Policy, and Leadership Update Series.  https://lnkd.in/gruxWU6f
