Education Reform Now & Nat. Alliance of Charter Schools campaign: "We are Superman"

[Hannah Bell]

From a recent EdWeek article, “‘Superman’ Documentary Draws Praise, Controversy“:

The Washington-based National Alliance for Public Charter Schools and Education Reform Now, in New York City, are teaming up to build a parallel campaign called “We Are Superman.”

In addition to building a website to house their efforts, the two groups are mobilizing teams of education activists in several cities to arm people with information on how they can improve education in their communities...

The Washington-based Center for Education Reform, a leading proponent of charters and other forms of school choice, is also launching an education effort tied to the film, with plans to release a guide explaining how to get involved.

One can only wonder if that’s related to the recent $275,000 grant the organization received from the Gates Foundation. DFER co-founder and Chair, Kevin Chavous, is a Senior Fellow at CER.
