Our Leaders
Glenn Way Founder
Glenn Way founded Charter One with a vision to transform education by empowering schools to provide exceptional learning environments that prioritize academic excellence, moral values, and the development of well-rounded leaders. Drawing from his experience creating American Leadership Academy, Glenn recognized the need for a management organization that could support schools in achieving their full potential while staying true to their individual missions.
Through Charter One, Glenn sought to address the challenges faced by charter schools, offering innovative solutions for operations, academics, marketing, and more. His approach emphasizes collaboration and a commitment to the core belief that every child is capable of making extraordinary contributions to society.
Glenn’s leadership and vision have shaped Charter One into a trusted partner for schools, helping them create nurturing environments where students can thrive academically, emotionally, and socially. His philosophy is deeply rooted in the idea that education should not only prepare students for successful careers but also inspire them to become responsible citizens, compassionate leaders, and devoted family members.
“We want our kids to learn why they were created—not just to become the best astronauts, plumbers, or mathematicians, but to become the best spouses, parents, citizens, and leaders,” - Glenn Way.
