Summary: Gives parents the ability to force their district to press the reset button, remove over half the staff from their school, and bring in a new team.

Summary: Gives parents the ability to force their district to bring in a new principal and implement other reforms at the school

Summary: An open-ended model which has the ability to incorporate many smaller changes not captured in other models

Summary: Parents can use the Parent Trigger law as leverage to bargain for different or nuanced changes that will help fix their children's failing school
