“ . . . the New Markets Tax Credit Program can be utilized to transform our schools and our communities. I commend ExED for successfully utilizing this Treasury Department program, and recognizing that charter schools can play a pivotal role in spurring economic development in low-income communities.”

“Charter schools are partnerships – among families and among communities. ExED is a true partner with Camino Nuevo. They have saved us money so we can dedicate more resources to student achievement.”

“ExED’s staff is just as passionate about our mission as they are dedicated to helping us accomplish it. They have been important partners in turning around Gompers and creating new opportunities for our students to attend college and pursue their dreams.”

“ExED played a critical role in securing low-cost financing that enabled us to convert a windowless, tilt-up concrete public storage facility into a beautiful and thriving middle and high school campus serving 875 students. Thanks to partners like ExED, the high school has become one of the top performers in the LAUSD, and the middle school outperformed all of its peers in its first year alone.”
