Success Academy

A gala for Success Academy Charter Schools is the topic of a dispatch at Bloomberg News by my former New York Sun colleague Amanda Gordon, who mentions some of the numbers that tell the story of the remarkable growth spearheaded by Eva Moskowitz, the dynamic former New York City Council member. The organization is on track to have 11,500 students in 23 schools and, as Ms. Gordon reports, the gala attracted significant support from leaders in New York's financial services industry.
