[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As soon as charters are involved, there is no central authority on the school district's budget and no elected official that oversees all of the schools budget and program wise.[/quote]

And right now we have central authority (APS School Board) and how's that going?

We have transparency and how's that helping anyone whose child is going to end up without a permanent seat, doing shift scheduling?

And we have elected officials "overseeing" the budget and programs but without any responsibility to the realities of over capacity (shrinking outdoor space for our kids to run around outside, more and more kids in trailers, more and more kids lost in the system, larger classrooms with more electronics instead of education)?

So honestly I don't have a problem TRYING to inject some new ideas into a system that is paralyzed, possibly because of the demands of transparency and centralized authority.[/quote]

Agreed. Time to try something new.[/quote]
