[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Charter schools are basically a political animal that try and ensure that students and their voting parents stay and don't take their votes and brains elsewhere. All-in-all it's a stupid concept: provide tax money to "experts" so they can spend it with little oversight and most often middling results and success. What? Something like 40% of charter schools in DC have failed and if you add in the poorly performing charters that number rises. Remember, charters send the students that are performing poorly back to the public schools. If they couldn't do that their success rate would be even lower. Basically, they're a way to try and break unions, appease voters, and try and save some cash for the governments. [/quote] How many DC public schools have had to be reconstituted and how many are failing a majority of their students? More than 40%. [/quote]
