[quote=Anonymous]DCPS gets more funding per student than most districts in the nation, and mismanages it to the point of the money not reaching the students. Charters only get half of the funding allocation per student from public funds, yet most of them still manage to do a good job. Charters typically have to put up money up front, secure buildings on their own, secure transportation on their own, everything is a fight and a struggle, and meanwhile, DCPS sits on dozens shuttered, unused buildings and facilities, and dozens of school buses sit in yards without drivers instead of being made available to charters who could put them to good use. The whole DCPS funding and management situation is a sin and needs to be rethought from the ground up.[/quote]
