Mission

Green Dot Public Schools is a 501(c)(3) non-profit public schools management organization that is transforming public education in Los Angeles so that all young adults receive the educations they need to be prepared for college leadership and life.  Green Dot currently operates five small, stand-alone charter high schools in the highest need areas of Los Angeles, and will begin transforming existing failing public schools into groups of small successful schools as a leader of “school transformation” projects.  Green Dot is founded on the core value of an unwavering belief in all students’ potential and believes that every child in Los Angeles should have access to a high quality public school education.  The organization’s work is directly focused on influencing Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) to transform its failing high schools into clusters of small successful schools and helping the district reinvent itself as one of the best school districts in the country.  A dramatic improvement within LAUSD will help drive increased student achievement throughout the State of California as other districts will adopt the effective practices of the State’s largest school district.
