Help us stop RI Representatives from making a wrong turn on RI's path to offering children a high-quality public school option. 

On Tuesday, June 16th at 2:00pm, the House Committee on Health, Education, and Welfare will vote on H-5160, a bill that would essentially impose a moratorium on future charter school growth by requiring local town councils and school committees to approve public charter school applications.

Just this year, 13,579 public charter school applications were submitted for a mere 1,871 seats.  That number is an indication that there is a strong demand for public school choice and that members of the House should not support any bill that would take away RI families’ access to a high-quality public school choice.
