Judge says Opponents can not shut down Charters...for now

11/14/2014

The Louisiana Association of Public Charter Schools (LAPCS) and seven Type 2 charter schools won an initial victory in the 19th Judicial District Court of East Baton Rouge when Judge Wilson Fields denied requests by the Louisiana Association of Educators and the Iberville Parish School Board to immediately strip 33 charter schools of their Minimum Foundation Program (MFP) funding and threaten their closure as of November 15.

“The Court today acted in the best interest of public education,” said LAPCS Director Caroline Roemer Shirley.

“This is a significant, but ultimately small victory. We have protected 33 charters and their funding for now, but the attack on the 13,000 Louisiana children who attend those schools and their right to attend the public school of their choice is far from over.”

INAUGURAL POWERMOVES.NOLA FELLOWS TO BE INTRODUCED AT NOVEMBER 10 EVENT

11/10/2014

PowerMoves.NOLA, a national initiative focused on providing access to capital, connections and guidance to increase the number of America’s venture-backed, minority entrepreneurs will introduce its inaugural class of PowerMoves.NOLA Fellows, sponsored by Chevron.  

PowerMoves.NOLA will host an open house for the Fellows on Monday, November 10, 2014, 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the new PowerMoves.NOLA headquarters, 1525 Religious Street in New Orleans.  

The PowerMoves.NOLA Fellowship helps high-growth, minority-led startups succeed by individually connecting them to executive, capital and technical assistance through a national network of advisors, mentors, experts and investors over a twelve-month period. During their fellowship year, the Fellows work with the PowerMoves.NOLA team to refine their business models, market test their products and services and secure additional funding.  

“After a comprehensive recruitment and review process, we are incredibly excited to announce our inaugural class of PowerMoves.NOLA Fellows, made possible by Chevron’s generous sponsorship,” said
PowerMoves.NOLA President Earl Robinson. “These innovative startups will be a powerful force to draw, keep, and grow minority intellectual capital in the region. I am optimistic the strategic guidance, operational support and investment monies given to these companies will pale in comparison to the economic impact they will make on the Greater New Orleans area.”  

Chevron’s sponsorship of the PowerMoves.NOLA Fellowship program is part of the energy company’s efforts to support
community partners making investments in programs that promote self-sufficiency, job growth and economic development. Chevron’s Gulf of Mexico business unit is based in Covington, LA.  

“Chevron believes that economic opportunity should be extended to as many people as possible, and that companies should be reflective of the diverse communities they serve," said Chevron Gulf of Mexico General Manager of Public Affairs Sakari Morrison.  

"Chevron is pleased to be the presenting sponsor of PowerMoves.NOLA as it seeks to build a more diverse, powerful entrepreneur community by bringing together talented minority entrepreneurs and providing them with access to capital, thought leaders and mentors to help them succeed."
 

Members of the 2014 Class of PowerMovesNOLA Fellows sponsored by Chevron are:
