[quote=Anonymous][quote]I support Lewis-George for Mayor. The charter system wants autonomy and DCPS wants support from neighbors and financial support to keep low- attendance schools open. Those seem doable. And I would appreciate a shift from focus on capital projects to spending to get student success. A lot of what we talk about here is nice to have. I’d rather have a full Roosevelt and Dunbar that drive success than another test- or grades-in high school. That’s not what everyone wants but it’s OK. I’d like a real school board. Some people fear dysfunction but that’s not a given. Appreciate all the thoughts. [/quote] JLG has a reputation of being anti-charter. She is also very pro-teachers union and unionization of charter schools typically results in the closures of those schools because they do not have the financial wherewithal to meet union demands. So unionization of charters is the back-door way for anti-charter forces to destroy the sector.[/quote]
