Lowell Milken HighTech LA (HTLA), a revolutionary public charter school in the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD), held dedication ceremonies in November 2004 for its cutting edge $13 million dollar school campus. Built through a remarkable public/private partnership, HTLA is a model school for the 21st century, complete with the most up-to-date technology available. After only two years of full operation, HTLA achieved the highest API scores of any high school in the Los Angeles Unified School District. For more information, visit www.ht-la.org.



Quotes

“While education is a national opportunity, it remains, regrettably, a national problem...and a problem of such scope and seeming intractability that we at the Foundation concluded long ago that the solution must be both exponential in its reach and overarching in its purpose. Not surprisingly, the key to the solution is the human element, for human capital is the decisive factor in all endeavors of abiding importance. In education, of course, the person endowed with the exponential power to make a difference is the talented educator.”
