New Roots Charter School empowers young people to learn actively, think critically, solve problems creatively and collaboratively, and develop the knowledge and skills to redesign our communities for social, economic, and ecological sustainability.
Striking that delicate, difficult and seemingly always changing balance between giving schools autonomy and providing responsible oversight is the work of the Charter Schools Institute.
New Roots has been inspired by the vision and spirit of a few outstanding leaders and organizations, and has been informed by well-documented research and supporting data.
