[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I read last week that a charter school recently purchased the St. Teresa school building in Anacostia. Good for them. But it makes me wonder, if a property like that could sit unused for nine years, why is FOCUS and the charter lobby constantly whining about not being gifted a valuable property like Shaw MS? Are they in the education business or the real estate business?[/quote] Because when charters have to use funds on DC real estate, then they can't use them on salaries and curriculum materials. Public school children are supposed to be supported at parity - it's the law - charter or district-based. It's the tax-payers as well who are being robbed when our public buildings lie fallow.[/quote]
