[quote=Anonymous]I'm no expert, but as a parent of a 3YO have been thinking about this A LOT.. Isn't a problem with charters that they aren't the default? The best case scenario is that everyone's local PS is great for all students. Then families have much less searching/lottery/etc because your local school is great and local. But as it is, if a local PS is lacking, charters get the kids with the parents who are most motivated/have the most resources/have the most free time... parents who can handle the search and handle the logistics of your kid not going to school in the neighborhood. When those families (and their $) leave the local PS, then you're left with parents with the fewest resources/time/etc.... which leads to the PS being more lacking. Very hard question... stressful to think about, with no perfect answer. [/quote]
