Green Dot Public Schools is the leading public schools operator in Los Angeles and an important catalyst for education reform in the State of California. Its mission is to transform public education in Los Angeles so that all young adults receive the education they deserve to be prepared for college, leadership, and life. Green Dot'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. Green Dot has already opened eighteen successful charter high schools in some of the highest need areas of Los Angeles; in doing so it has demonstrated that public schools can do a far better job of educating students if schools are operated more effectively. Green Dot has also launched two "sister" organizations, the Small Schools Alliance and the Los Angeles Parents Union, which are both focused on organizing communities and leaders throughout Los Angeles around dramatic public education reform. hide
