Turning the Page Toward Excellence

Founded by Regina Lauricella, a seasoned charter school leader and Executive Leadership Consultant, Next Chapter brings deep expertise in guiding schools through transformation. Whether a school is navigating a crisis, redefining its identity, or ready to scale its impact, we’re here to help you move forward with confidence.

Our work is driven by a deep commitment to equity, excellence, and sustainability. We believe that by supporting school leaders, boards, and communities with the right tools and guidance, we can shape environments where students thrive and schools truly shine.

How We Partner with Schools

We partner with charter schools across all stages of their journey with services including:

  • Leadership Development and Coaching

  • Strategic and Priority Planning

  • Renewal and Expansion Preperation

  • Grant Writing and Resource Development

  • Turnaround and School Improvement

  • Innovation and Growth Planning

  • Remedial Action Planning

Our Approach

We don’t offer one-size-fits-all solutions. Instead, we collaborate closely with each school to understand its unique context and goals, then tailor our support accordingly.

Our Promise

At Next Chapter, we imagine what’s possible, engage deeply with communities, and inspire bold action. Every school has a story—we help ensure it’s one worth reading.
