The Eastbank Collaborative of Charter Schools (ECCS) is a formal alliance of 10 public schools in Orleans Parish which promotes public charter schools as a permanent option for children. The ECCS is a 501c3 working to maintain the maximum autonomy of each member school, while protecting the long-term structure, durability and operation of all charters in Louisiana. Also, ECCS is a voluntary-network dedicated to keeping principals and their charter boards “in charge” through information and advocacy, shared services, and reduced costs.

Mission: To ensure the survivability of the charter school reform movement in New Orleans so that parents and students can have access and choices to high quality schools.


The SUNS Center provides resources and supports to Charter Schools to help them provide appropriate educational services to at-risk students.  Through the provision of on-site technical supports to school site staff and the delivery of direct services to students, the Center assists Charter schools in building capacity to best meet the needs of students at-risk for both academic and behavior problems.While the Center’s main emphasis is supports to Charter Schools, any school in the Greater New Orleans area may contact the Center for services.

The SUNS Center is a private, non-profit agency funded by Baptist Community Ministries through the School Leadership Center.
