About Us:GEO Foundation has been making access to quality schools a reality for children since 1998. GEO incubates quality charter schools and then supports their growth and success. GEO-sponsored public charter schools are high academic growth schools and feature a unique K-14 model--full day kindergarten all the way through two years of college. We believe all children should have access to a quality education that includes college. We embrace all quality educational options that enable parents to help their children learn and schools to succeed.
