[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looks like open war on charter schools. The unions have not had such a good Sunday in a long, long time.

Did we read the same article?  I didn't see anything about open war.  If Scott Pearson is right, and charter schools grow by 8% next year to 38,000 students (out of 80,000 public school students) then the charters should be bigger than DCPS in just 2 more years.  That's not my idea of open war, at least not a successfully waged one.[/quote]

Stopping or slowing down payments for facilities will cause charter school defaults and stop higher performing charter schools from opening. [/quote]

It's a piece of spaghetti thrown at the wall, not an articulated policy with political support.[/quote]

If Wells will stop saying this sort of stuff, we will all be better able to focus on helping DC's kids. Maybe it is coming from Alexander but it needs to stop and Catania needs to keep his education committee in line.[/quote]
