Expanding access to high-quality public school options
Our Work
Too many Mississippi students still lack access to a public school option. MCSA is working to change that, growing from one charter school in 2013 to 12 today and continuing to expand opportunity across the state.
Our Strategic Priorities
Priority 1: Strengthen & Improve Current Schools
Priority 2: Develop Leaders & Support Education Entrepreneurs
Priority 3: Create Conditions That Support Strong Schools
What Success Looks Like
Achievement: Students experience stronger academic outcomes through improved instruction, school quality, and access to high-performing schools.
Access: Families gain greater access to high-quality public school options as new schools open and existing schools expand in underserved communities.
Leadership: The charter sector becomes more unified, credible, and positioned for sustainable growth through effective advocacy, partnerships, and public engagement.
