Perales named CEO at Changemaker High 

Changemaker High School has named Luis Perales as chief executive officer, succeeding Judith Anderson.

The tuition-free public charter school in Tucson has a special emphasis on social justice and activism.

Perales, who holds a master’s degree, has served as the school’s chief academic officer since 2012, helping to create free Innovation Camps open to all Tucson eighth-graders, a student-run farmer’s market and student-driven community development projects, the school said in a news release. Changemaker is the only applicant from Arizona selected to present at the 2016 International Social Innovation Research Conference in Glasgow, Scotland in September.
