[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [b]Who is saying that charters, as a whole, do a better job than public schools, as a whole?[/b] The main claim, the thing that really matters, is that the good charters do a better job than the bad public schools. Which is why over 40% of parents in DC fight their way out of their neighborhood schools into charters. But it's just stupid to compare Mundo Verde with Janney. The real comparison is between Mundo Verde and, say, Hendley.[/quote] The "competition is the key for good schools" people.[/quote] You haven't understood what I said. What those folks want, via charters, is better alternatives for the FAILING public schools. You prefer kids to keep going to horrible schools, where they learn little? [/quote]
