[quote=Anonymous]I feel stuck on this one because I understand the problem with charters with regards to public schools BUT I am so frustrated with our public school for things that are only minimally about demographics and are mostly about what I consider to be outdated, developmentally inappropriate rules and teaching methods. We're trying to go charter just to get away from this environment I think is not conducive to learning. I know anti-charter people will tell me "work to change your school." But that's such a huge expectation. I have a job, we're not rich. I understand the problems with charters, but it's SO MUCH EASIER for me to find a charter that has an approach I like better and just send my kid there. My ideal would be for my local neighborhood school to offer a better environment. It doesn't. Charters offer me a choice that I think would be better for my kid. I get why it's complicated, but it's also very, very simple.[/quote]
