[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a bit misleading since charters are basically private schools that get taxpayer funding. [/quote] Omg no they aren't. Mandatory standardized tests, for starters. [/quote] . . . And having to take all children regardless of ability or preparedness. . . [/quote] Very naive response. Charters by and large find ways to admit kids they want and boot out or exclude the ones they don't. [/quote] DCPS manages to find ways to boot out or exclude 40% of its kids, the ones who they figure are troublemakers and slackers...[/quote] That's the DCPS dropouts. But before you even get to those numbers (40% of the kids who remained in the DCPS system) they managed to boot out or exclude over 40% (the ones who leave to go to charters) by underserving them and not meeting their needs.[/quote]
