[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The DC Public Charter School Board (PCSB) accepted 11 applications to open new public charter schools by the February 1st deadline.  The charter schools,[b] if approved[/b], would open in fall 2013.

The applications offered a variety of program options:  two elementary schools with language immersion (Hebrew and Arabic); four young adult education programs with one focused on job training in renewable energy technologies, one on preparing for postsecondary education and employment, another on alternative education targeted to at-risk youth and the other a virtual/online program; an elementary/middle school; a college prep high school; a Montessori program and a combined traditional and online K-12 program.

I disapprove of a charter school with Hebrew language immersion. I sort of feel similarly about Arabic, but not as strongly, as at least Arabic is spoken through a large segment of the world instead of by one single religious minority.

Why should taxpayers fund a Jewish school?[/quote]
