Yes to all this - and give parents a choice - charter schools...
There's no more need for charter schools in FCPS than there was for TJHSST. At some point, they'll figure out that common-sense approaches that don't, for example, require expanding a bloated program like AAP to appease special-interest groups isn't the way forward. But it won't be Palchik, a TJ grad, or Hynes, a limousine liberal, leading the way forward.
