The most stirring speech of the 2009 National Charter Schools Conference in Washington DC quickly became one of the most requested via Twitter (keyword #charterconf).

Dr. Howard Fuller, founding chairman of the National Alliance for Public Charter Schools, addressed 1,500 charter school supporters headed to Capitol Hill for the largest advocacy effort in the movement's history:

“...If this movement is going to mean anything, we’ve got to close that achievement gap. We’ve got to eliminate that achievement gap.”

This is simply a must-see video (courtesy www.publiccharters.org).

 

Make plans now, the 2010 National Charter Schools Conference is destined for Chicago.
