Testimonials

Jade Rivera, Founder & Executive Director, Albuquerque Collegiate Charter School

“I’ve thoroughly appreciated getting to work with EdTec in the last few years. Their team is comprised of incredibly dedicated, knowledgeable, and helpful individuals, willing to go to great lengths on behalf of the schools they support. I love that their team has a nation-wide base, with both expertise across the country, and the benefit of a local client manager, all of whom work collaboratively to ensure strong financial management for our school.”

Julianne Hillock, Principal, Hozho Academy

“As a founding principal of a charter school and being new to New Mexico, the help I have received from EdTec has been invaluable. Their knowledgeable and helpful staff have supported me in countless ways. Their expertise allowed me to be proactive and line up systems and procedures which promoted our successful growth from year one to year two.”

MaeLin Levine, Board President and Founder, Urban Discovery Academy

“We are so thrilled with EdTec and the team, they are responsive, professional and experts in all aspects of charter school management. As a board member it is so reassuring to have a back office team that has so much experience in both the day-to-day operations of schools but also in things like bond financing, which we learned the hard way isn’t always the case with other back office support teams.”

Mallory Dwinal, Co-Founder, Oxford Day Academy

“EdTec has been the single best partner and resource we’ve encountered as a startup charter school. They have a comprehensive understanding of the entire charter ecosystem– from finances, to data management and compliance, to governance, EdTec has become our first and last stop for figuring out any challenge. It is safe to say that we would not have made it through the launch process without them, and would strongly recommend them to anyone who is serious about building a viable new school.”

Taletha Washburn, Executive Director, Plumas Charter School

“Plumas Charter School has partnered with EdTec since 2011. The decision to enter into this partnership was one of the best business decisions the school has ever made, and we have not once regretted it. As the Director of the school for the last five years, I am the primary liaison with our EdTec Client Manager. I have been consistently impressed with the level of knowledge, expertise, and reliability the EdTec team possesses, and I rely on them heavily for regular planning and the careful monitoring of resources. Our EdTec Client Manager is an invaluable member of our team, as are all of the other EdTec folks we have the pleasure of working with. I would recommend EdTec to any school looking for competent budgeting and business support.”

Ignacio Prado, Executive Director, Futuro Academy

“Partnering with EdTec since our founding has been a critical part of maintaining our educational mission orientation. Our support from EdTec ensured strong and consistent financial and operational functions and therefore empowered us to focus on growing our impact in teaching and learning. The services and insight provided by our dedicated EdTec client manager and support staff have provided the foundation for our board to perform its fiduciary duty, and for our management team to be strategic and optimize our resources to the greatest benefit to our school community.”

David Blodgett, Executive Director, Nevada Prep Charter School

“EdTec has been an invaluable partner since before Day 1—from the charter application stage through school launch and growth, and now as we move to our school’s first permanent campus. Our Client Manager consistently goes above and beyond to ensure that school leadership and our governing board have the data and information they need to make informed decisions. She is a brilliant problem solver who is a great fit with our scrappy, lean team. Other EdTec support (A/P, payroll, etc.) has also been consistent and reliable, allowing us to focus more of our own time on teaching, learning, and school culture.”

Director of Finance and Operations, Grizzlies Prep Charter School

“EdTec has partnered with Grizzlies Prep for much longer than I’ve been in my position. Because of that established relationship, EdTec was able to provide crucial training and support to help ensure that everything continued to run smoothly while I was learning on the job. EdTec staff continue to be incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, and quick to respond when questions arise. Their back-office support has been instrumental in Grizzlies Prep’s financial and operational success.”

Charlie Friedman, Founder and Head of School, Nashville Classical Charter School

“Since before we opened, EdTec has helped our school to manage our back-office. Their team’s support has added value and capacity. We wouldn’t be growing or thriving without them.”

LaKendra Butler, Founder and School Leader, STRIVE Collegiate Academy

“The EdTec team is nothing short of amazing. They have supported STRIVE since our charter application and have not only helped us with finances but have helped me grow as a leader. Leading a charter school is hard work, but there is joy when you have other people working alongside of you to lead a top-quality school.”

Tori Jackson Hines, Founder and Head of School, Resurgence Hall

“Our work with EdTec has been invaluable since our first meeting. Their financial expertise, experience, and overall knowledge of the charter school landscape is incomparable. Most importantly, working with EdTec has given our team the ability to heavily focus on creating and implementing the most effective, high impact academic program, knowing we have a team of back office support to ensure our financial health and resource alignment to our mission.”

Jocelyn Atler, Co-Founder/Head of School, Dekalb Brilliance Academy

“In our planning year, EdTec has been an invaluable partner, responding quickly to the many challenges that come with start-up, and ensuring that we have the tools to not only respond to the ever-changing landscape of facilities, grants, etc., but that we have the time and confidence to focus on what matters most – our families.”

Nii Sai Sai, Director of Information Management, Aspire Public Schools

“EdTec continues to be a consistently reliable partner for Aspire Public Schools. Our relationship has evolved over multiple years, from basic SIS support, to helping our team with local and state reporting, staff training, figuring out complex data integration challenges with our data engineering team, and setting up new schools in Memphis TN. Whenever we hit a wall, EdTec has proven to be an excellent
thought partner and solution provider. They have helped us get better at serving our students and teammates.”
