Vision
Charter schools represent the opportunity to examine practices and develop structures that can help solve the many challenges facing schools in the Los Angeles Unified School District and the greater educational community.
Mission
The Los Angeles Unified School District views charter schools as part of the District's family and as an asset from which we can learn. Therefore, the Los Angeles Unified School District will encourage and nurture the development and continuation of charter schools that are accountable for improved student learning and that can:
Provide possible solutions to urban school challenges through practices that help:
Ease the shortage of school facilities and seat space
Narrow the achievement gap among students of various backgrounds
Increase responsible parent and student involvement in learning
Improve teacher quality and performance evaluation systems
Provide data to help identify and evaluate issues that affect quality educational programs and student learning and achievement
Serve as laboratories to test, demonstrate and disseminate ideas that can promote better educational practices
Provide an additional educational option for parents
The Los Angeles Unified School District is interested in fostering a collaborative relationship among charter and non-charter schools to promote learning through active participation and meaningful articulation of ideas.
