Charter Schools Summit

August 20, 2010

Dear Business Leader,

We are the North Carolina Alliance for Public Charter Schools in Raleigh, NC. Our organization has been in operation less than a year and we have produced a very successful statewide charter schools conference and galvanized the charter community into a strong voice for expansion of quality charters in our state.

We are on the precipice of an explosion of charter schools in this state, a state long burdened by an arbitrary statutory cap of 100 schools. With legislative member retirements and our citizens reaching a tipping point in demanding better K-12 education outcomes, the capricious cap will probably be removed in 2011 and families will enjoy the choice and competition that is embedded in every other part of American society.

We want you to join this enthusiasm!

Become a business member of our Alliance today for only $100 and better still,  become a sponsor of our October 21, 2010 Charter Schools Summit  in Charlotte, NC. We will hear legislators discuss the charter environment . We will also hear from the dynamic President of NC’s largest college, Central Piedmont Community College, Dr. Tony Zeiss.

Your sponsorship of $10,000 (Title), $5,000 (Host), $1,000 (Gold), or $500 (Silver) ensures that our 100 schools, 3,000 educators, and families of the 40,000 children attending our schools, and those waiting in the wings to launch their own charter schools, will learn of your support and join us in supporting you!

Call me personally at 704.236.1234 and let’s discuss your level of involvement in what we expect to be the nation’s largest explosion of public charter schools in 2011!

In advancing quality education, I remain

Very truly yours,

W. Edward Goodall, Jr. President
