[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, in DC they are nonprofits, not private companies. Some contract with a management company to provide some services but I think BASIS is the only one like that that is popular on DCUM. The others are strictly nonprofits.[/quote] OK, charters are private non-profit companies that run public schools (even Basis here is non-profit as that's DC law). The sometimes shady arrangements with for profit management companies is another aspect, but they are all non-public companies. The point is that the public no longer owns them once a charter school does.[/quote]
