[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In my experience as a founding family, parents need to back up at some point and let the admin run the business. If you have a problem in class, that’s another issue. [/quote]

-Same. It's always nice to be acknowledged  and have ways to contribute that are valued--and charters are frankly not always the best with that kind of follow up, but at the end of the day the buck stops with the admin and faculty, and they don't want (nor should they) a bunch of parent back seat drivers. If you want to be that involved, get a job application I would say.[/quote]

These are all very facile answers when your school hasn't either been subject to a child predator or lost 25% of its teaching staff or has parents leaving in droves due to intense bullying. [/quote]

Right, that's when you vote with your feet.[/quote]

And consider yourself lucky to not be tied there based on your home address. Folks who aren't happy with the administration at your school - I get it, but this is EXACTLY what school choice is. You chose it. You can un-choose it. If there are a million families on the waiting list eager to backfill your seat, there's not much you can do.[/quote]
