What an incredible few days at the California Charter Schools Conference in Sacramento last week! ?? A huge thank you to California Charter Schools Association for bringing together California’s charter school leaders, educators, and advocates to collaborate on the future of public education. It was especially great connecting with our customers, including Sac Prep and schools part of EnrollWCC, to hear how they’re innovating student enrollment and school choice. The conversations at CCSA reaffirmed the urgency of the mission to make enrollment easier, fairer, and more accessible for families and schools alike. Families deserve a transparent, seamless enrollment process, and schools need modern solutions to reach and serve their communities. To everyone who stopped by to chat, share ideas, and explore ways to improve enrollment—thank you! Looking forward to continuing these conversations and working together to ensure every family has access to a quality education. #CCSA #CaliforniaCharterSchools
