[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't really understand why more public resources should go to support the operations of charter schools (including capital improvements). Charter schools receive a really generous per-student allotment, AND do hefty private fundraising on top of it, AND often get to use public buildings. Why should we pay for the renovations of those buildings instead of the renovations of traditional public schools that often don't have the flexibility to access more funding? (and, end up serving a lot of students that charters boot out without the benefit of the per-student allotment if students are expelled late enough in the school year) I'm really honestly open to others' (civil) points of view on this because I don't get it. [/quote] But charters actually get a lot fewer per pupil dollars than the public schools, so why not chip in with capital improvements?[/quote]
