Florida Public School Choice Consortium


Kathy Israelson

Greetings:

I would like to welcome all new North Region Consortium members! Thanks to all who attended the meeting in Jacksonville this past July. We had 23 counties represented at our fall meeting in Tallahassee.  I would like to personally invite you to the:

3rd Annual State Conference
Florida Public School Choice Consortium
Sunday September 30 – Tuesday October 2, 2007
Caribe Royale Resort, Orlando, Florida

It will take place in Orlando Florida before the K-12 Conference and Innovation Fair. Registration information and process will be posted on www.schoolofed.nova.edu/choice and www.fpscc.org

What an exciting time to be in education!  Florida leads the nation on innovative school reform and yet continues to set higher standards for student achievement.  Three major trends affecting public school education in Florida today are school improvement, school choice and student diversity.  The mission of the Florida Public School Choice Consortium (FPSCC) is to provide information and support and to maintain and expand public school choice options in Florida.

Welcome and see you in September!

Kathy Israelson

North Region Representative
