Causes: Charter Schools, Education
Mission: Western sierra charter schools, a charter management organization, currently manages two charter schools, mountain home school charter and glacier high school charter. The mission of both charters is the following: to inspire students to learn and grow to their potential and become responsible contributing community members; assist parents in the education of their students; and provide the community with a valid educational alternative.
Programs: Mountain home school charter and glacier high school charter will accomplish their mission to inspire students to learn and grow to their potential and become responsible contributing community members by the following: serving as a liaison between the community and the home schooling family; demonstrating to the community the educational soundness and viability of publicly funded, parent-directed education for students; providing a supportive, encouraging environment in which parents can receive high quality training opportunities, teaching resources, mentoring, opportunities for networking, and a structure to support their educational objectives; and providing students with learning resources and an environment for enrichment opportunities that encourage them to become self-motivated, competent, lifelong learners.
