[quote=Anonymous]NO they do not. And PP you're exactly correct. It does perpetuate the disadvantages we already have when we try to support our local neighborhood school. We have this funding system because of the charter schools. It was set up this way to be "equal" funding for charters and to foster as many charters as possible, and is seen as the most advantageous to charters funding system in the country. Now we know that what is "equal" is not necessarily equitable, but we can't change it now. Of course, it also doesn't take into account that most charters have robust national fundraising networks that can, and do, raise many millions of dollars for their charters. Even if a charter is not affiliated with a national chain, mom and pop charters still benefit from local foundation money,which DCPS cannot tap into. [/quote]
