A Backpack Full of Cash:
Watch Parties

​We think the timing is right to educate and inform as many people as possible about the dangers of charter schools and the perils of privatization. We know lifting the charter school cap and amending their regulations will adversely affect public education. At the same time, charter schools in Alberta are very poorly understood. This is a great opportunity to share some critical messaging.
