[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is great news. He's doing what I elected him to do.

Public schools need competition, their product is deteriorating and unions work against parents' interests. [/quote]

It’s not a fair competition unless these schools need to take all comers- the learning disabled, the LGBQT, the poor, the parents-in-jail, along with the middle class white kids fleeing public schools.

When you consider how selective these schools are in other states, their outcomes really are mediocre for the money spent.

You want to know what’s going to work against  the parents interest? The for-profit consultancy that will be making every decision. They’re not going to spend a dime they don’t have to on staff, facilities, or anything else. [/quote]

Plus more. Have you all taken a look as to what happens when charters are let loose on q district? Esepcially ones that dont need to meet stringent accreditation requirement and can kick kids out? [/quote]

I like the idea of VA's public universities being in charge of these charters, as our universities are very good.  On the other hand, the community college is awful and very poorly run, so hopefully it won't end up like that or be under their control.

However, I've worked with DC charters for a few years now, and they are abominable.  I've never seen anything so chaotic, inefficient, and, I suspect, corrupt.[/quote]
