[quote=Anonymous]I believe that DC does not permit for-profit charter schools, but does allow for-profit management companies to provide services to or even run the entire school. As we've seen, that basically allows the for-profit to drain money out of the charter, either by self-dealing/fraud (which could happen with a nonprofit too) or just the good-ol profit motive. Some states completely ban for-profits from the charter sector. I think DC should do so as well. Here is a good blog post on the issue: http://rooseveltinstitute.org/new-roosevelt/education-profit-darker-side-charter-schools [/quote]
