Rhode Island Mayoral Academies (RIMA)

RIMA is a non-profit that supports the growth of high-performing public charter schools that are governed by mayor-led school boards. The mission of Rhode Island Mayoral Academies (RIMA) is to support the statewide growth of Mayoral Academies. Mayoral Academies are high-performing, diverse, independent public schools governed by mayor-led school boards. We accomplish our mission by: • Recruiting extraordinary school operators and leaders to open Mayoral Academies; • Supporting Mayoral Academies from the application stage through the first years of growth; • Cultivating mayors across Rhode Island to become leaders in education reform.
