The California charter school insurrection continues
As a venture capitalist, Greg Mauro’s job is to find and nurture promising technology startups for investment opportunities. Now he wants to do the same in the public education arena.
The 36-year-old recently helped secure $35 million in federal tax credits for building new charter schools in low-income neighborhoods in California.
San Diego-based Revolution Ventures, where Mauro is managing partner, created Revolution Community Ventures, a community development entity, specifically to apply for the tax credits.
Revolution is working with the Point Loma-based chain of High Tech High charter schools, which received state permission in January to open 10 more campuses in California.
Could the Gates Foundation follow a similar pattern? I would imagine they’re watching these developments pretty closely.
