[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] That's not answering the core question or addressing the core reality here. Point is, you have a CHOICE. And, given a choice between school a, b, c, d, e, f, g... and the kid is currently at school b but really really does not want to be at school b and as a result is acting out and being disruptive, why do you want to continue to force that kid to go to school b? Can you answer me that? [/quote] From the school's perspective, it does not matter why a parent would do that. It only matters that the parent wants to keep the child in the school. It's the parent's choice. As you say, that's what public charter schools are about -- providing choice to parents about schools. They are not (or should not be) about providing choice to public charter schools about students.[/quote] If the parents really cared about their kids, they would work on their kids' behavior. Instead they seem to want to just blame everyone else.[/quote]
