[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Charter schools are a good idea in places where the school system is an absolute mess, like DC.  They would not make sense here.  Even though there are many dissenters, the local school districts in northern Virginia are very good, and charter schools would just defund them.[/quote]

Welcome to 2021. FCPS is not the excellent school system it was 30 years ago. It’s been a slow deterioration. While it serves some populations well- AAP, TJ, extreme special needs.

The vast majority in between have been underserved and the education has become below mediocre. [/quote]

Agree +1000

I can't wait for more charter schools and county-wide choice.  Let the public funds follow each student and let their be multiple service providers using public funds to provide k-12 education.  If we can have choice in hospitals and doctors under medicare, we can have choice in public school institutions under school choice.  Let students, parents, and families decide which schools serve them best and let the schools compete for students rather than basing education on the vicissitudes of how expensive your house or land value is and how lucky or unlucky you are with the school principal's leadership that year.[/quote]
