PCSD On the Road
Dear Friends and Partners,
I’m excited to share some great news in this month’s update. PCSD was recently awarded a second grant from Houston Endowment for $3M, which will help us continue supporting charter schools in Houston by providing high-quality, mission-driven facilities.
As we kick off the 2024-2025 school year, we’ve delivered several new school facilities, ensuring students have the spaces they need to thrive. It’s always a proud moment when we see these projects come to life and make a difference in their communities.
Lastly, we’re hitting the road this fall! PCSD will be presenting at several key conferences, starting with the Texas Public Charter School Conference on October 21 and the CSDC Conference on November 18. Additionally, we will be attending the NMTC Conference in New Orleans from October 24-25. We look forward to sharing insights and connecting with many of you there.
Thank you for your continued support! And don't forget to follow us on LinkedIn.
Warmly,
John Sun
