Statement from Center for Education Reform Founder and CEO Jeanne Allen on Kevin Chavous’s new role:
“It is with great pleasure that I am pleased to announce that longtime friend, CER board member, and reform movement leader Kevin Chavous will become the president of K12 Inc.
I first met Kevin when he was a District of Columbia city councilman in the 1990s fighting for these new innovative things called “charter schools.” I saw him then as he is now, a forward thinking innovative leader on issues surrounding education.
When it comes to educating children, personalized learning and emerging technology have become a large part of the equation, and Kevin is the perfect leader to help grow that conversation. Our entire staff and board members here at CER wish him the best in his new endeavor.”
