  • Turnaround Schools: the Locke Transformation Project, a Model of Reform
    Turnaround Schools: The Locke Transformation Project, A Model of Reform Green Dot Public Schools (“Green Dot”) is leading the charge to transform public education in California so that all children receive the education they need to be successful in college, leadership and life. As the largest non-profit charter operator in Los Angeles, Green Dot operates 19 successful charter high schools in the highest need areas of Los Angeles. With fully unionized certificated and classified school-site staff, Green Dot is proving public schools can do a far better job of educating students if they operate more effectively.
