The Problem
A mid-sized charter management organization located in the Midwest was looking to save money while attracting and retaining their key employees. With the current employment market, the school faced challenges in attracting the right talent — especially with competition from both traditional schools and public charter schools.
The NFP Solution
NFP conducted an alternative financing study that included a self-funding analysis for the charter school. This revealed potential savings of close to a million dollars within the 24-month renewal period. The charter school faced a steep increase for a fully insured renewal. NFP successfully negotiated it down, allowing the school to remain completely covered.
