At this year’s National Summit on Education, we are thrilled to highlight the many strategies states are using to expand learning opportunities for all. Policymakers and education leaders can learn the why, when and how to better serve students and their families.
Join our expert panelists for timely discussions on policies that can help your state continue the momentum to empower families with opportunity:

What does it mean to make school choice truly “universal”? What policies can states use to pave the way toward that goal, while also ensuring equitable access and meaningful funding? We’ll explore the recent surge in universal choice options, dissecting the programs and innovations that states have designed to achieve a big and bold vision: making universal choice a reality.
The momentum behind school choice is electrifying, with states enacting programs at an unprecedented pace and expanding their reach to millions more students. How can we supercharge options for families with new ideas like hybrid homeschool, extracurricular access, transportation resources and the like? And let’s not forget about weighted funding to support students who have had the most limited educational options. Let’s embark on a journey to forge bigger, better, more equitable educational opportunity for all.


For more than a decade we’ve had sound evidence that public charter schools help students achieve at comparatively high levels. This is true even though states are not meeting the facility needs of charter schools, forcing them to redirect funding intended for instruction. Learn how ExcelinEd’s Charter School Facility Index is helping states identify cost-effective and innovative ways to narrow the charter school facility funding gap.
