Mission and Program Overview

Mission

To increase our collective understanding of the challenges, identify viable solutions, and ensure effective charter school practices that justify the trust of parents and students with disabilities, the charter sector needs a credible entity that will be a reliable resource for key stakeholders; both in the charter sector and the special education advocacy community. We created the national center for special education in charter schools (ncsecs) to fill the current void and proactively seek to foster innovations that will benefit both charter and traditional public schools. In creating ncsecs, our goal is to advocate for students with diverse learning needs to ensure that if they are interested in attending charter schools, they are able to access and thrive in schools designed to enable all students to succeed.

To improve students with disabilities access to charter schools and to build charter schools capacity to offer high quaility special education programs.

Financial Statement Notes

X 2

“The Organization is a not for profit organization and is exempt from income taxes under Section 501c3 of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, income tax expense is limited to activities that are deemed by the Internal Revenue Service to be unrelated to their exempt purposes. The Organizations primary tax positions relate to its status as a not for profit entity exempt from income taxes and classification of activities related to its exempt purposes. It is the opinion of management that the Organization has no uncertain tax positions that would be subject to change upon examination.The Organization is required to file a federal exempt organization tax return Form 990 annually to retain its exempt status. The Organization is also required to file an exempt organization business income tax return Form 990T for any year gross unrelated business income exceeds 1,000. The Organizations Form 990 filings are generally subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for three years after they are filed.”
