[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would offer it only to families displaced when a neighborhood school is closed and turned over to a charter. Aside from that, I think it further advantages those who can afford to choose where they live.[/quote] Not sure about that. The charter system seems to heavily advantage middle to high SES for the top 20 in demand schools, because that is those who can more easily arrange for transportation and there seems to be a snowball effect. 90 of the 115 charters are almost exclusively economically disadvantaged. Seems to be quite a stratified system in its current state.[/quote]
