[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm coming in late here and haven't read through, but I do feel charter schools are very valuable to kids and students. I also dislike how our legislatures and governors have been against them as they are very valuable in communities where the public education is not good enough. I also don't buy the argument that charters deprive monies from the local public schools:[b] our poor public schools get 38% or more of local revenue and fail in core education of students year after year. [/b] So yes I think VA should have more charter schools.[/quote] So this way they'll get even less. [b]Just say what you mean: you don't like YOUR money being spent on THOSE kids[/b]. Charters won't do anything except deny entry or force out kids who drag down their scores so it looks like they're actually improving education. They're not. [/quote] What is wrong with you PP? You don't know me from Adam. I'm saying that my kid was ill-served in a NoVA public school system and had I been able to use a Charter school, I would have. Project your own uncomfortable bias onto strangers much? [/quote]
