And by the way, not only do charters not serve the role bolded above, they are not MEANT to serve that role.  Charters were the best alternative anyone could come up with for educating students who were getting left behind by a public school system that was unable in some instances, and unwilling in others, to change.  They were never meant to be "your friendly neighborhood school, for neighborhood kids".  They were meant to be an alternative for kids whose neighborhood schools should have been closed ages ago to get an education.  [/quote]
If charters were meant to serve the students who were left behind by a public school system, or whose IB schools should have been closed ages ago, then they should only be open to students assigned to IB schools performing under a certain standard.

I am not, by the way, in favor of this or anything else, I am just pointing out that for your argument to work, charters must specifically exclude kids assigned to good IB schools.[/quote]
