[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Arlington has many different schools and no charters. They all fall under one school system though and have oversight and shared resources. Charter schools are very inefficient and have the tendency to be uneven. As part of no child left behind, unfailing school requires children to have the option of attending a different school. With this in place, I don't see the need for charters and I don't understand how legally we can allow public money be spent towards religious schools in a country that separates religion from government. [/quote] Perhaps the possibility of charters will lead APS to gets its act together and address the low performance of so many schools in South Arlington. But, knowing APS, they'll just assume charters will be part of the solution to their overcrowding crisis, and do nothing.[/quote] There is only one pie. I can't imagine APS sharing any piece of it.
