[quote=Anonymous]The District shouldn't allow charter schools to proliferate near existing traditional schools. That's part of the problem. Residents are told that their neighborhood school needs to close because there are not enough children the neighborhood or that the school building is in need of repair and then a charter school opens up. Charter schools are all right but neighborhood schools need to be made more desirable. Forget the high SES, race, and FARM stuff and make all traditional schools good, diverse, and competitive and that offer foreign language classes (not immersion), physical education, art, and music, too, as part of the standard curriculum. But still, the mayor's proposal makes sense.[/quote]
