She has worked with over 500 charter schools (yes, 500, count 'em) nationwide to improve their effectiveness—more than anyone else on the planet. She founded her charter school consultancy Meetinghouse Solutions in 2001, and has focused on charter
school governance since the mid 1990s. After working with her first 200+ charter schools, she created BoardOnTrack to implement the most effective strategies and practices of her many clients, and as a means of spreading this information to a wider audience of charter schools.

Marci is also a co-founder of The Achievement Network, which helps schools use data-driven strategies to increase student achievement.
