Pacific Charter School Development
PCSD’s mission is to provide long-term affordable facilities solutions to increase the availability of high quality charter schools for underserved students. Pacific Charter School Development was founded in 2004 by former President & CEO, Glenn Pierce, Kim Smith and James Willcox, then of the NewSchools Venture Fund. The organization was formed to address the single greatest hurdle that high-quality charter schools face in educating urban children – securing adequate academic campuses. Recognizing this need, the three founders designed an organization that could marshall resources of the leading members of the philanthropic and socially-conscious community to produce new school seats in low income communities with the greatest need.
