Richard Whitmire, author of ‘The Founders’, talks about how Don Shalvey inspired the idea for the book, how he first became interested in high-performing charter schools, how sharing amongst the top-performers is a secret to their success, and the “desperate need” for expanding high-quality public charters. The book, he says, documents the history of these top-performers and also looks into the future at charters 3.0. Where are we going next?
