OFFICIAL STATEMENT
We are deeply saddened to hear about the reported incident involving a student at the school currently operating as “Impact Charter at Harding.” .
Our thoughts and prayers are with the child, the family, classmates, and all those affected.
For clarity, the original Impact Charter School leadership, founders, and Education Explosion organization are not involved in the management, daily operations, staffing, administration, policies, or emergency response procedures of “Impact Charter at Harding.” The school currently operates under a separate administration and governance structure established through actions taken by BESE.
Because many members of the public continue to associate the current school with the original Impact Charter School, we believe it is important to respectfully clarify that they are separate operations. Any questions, concerns, or requests for accountability regarding this incident should be directed to the current administration and governing authorities responsible for oversight of the school’s operations.
Above all, we remain prayerful for the student and family and hopeful for a positive outcome.
