[quote=Anonymous]This is my problem with charters. If you allow the charters to siphon public funds away from the core public school system and then weed out the students that take work to teach, the remaining public schools become a dumping ground that will hard pressed to serve anyone. Eff that. If these master educators really have all the answers, put them on contract to advise the public schools on curriculum and best practices. But they don't have all the answers, especially as their number one best practice is "select the students who are easy to teach" I have an active seven year old who was no prince in kindergarten. Now, because I'm in a very good public school system in a rich area and I am educated and white, there was never any question that they would try to railroad my kid or me into anything. They figured out how to deal with my wiggly boy and others like him. They had no choice, but they also understood that this was their responsibility. [/quote]
