It's #SchoolChoiceWeek! But teachers' unions and big-gov't politicians don’t want choice, and they HATE @MoskowitzEva for showing that kids allowed to choose Success Academy Charter schools... LOVE to learn:pic.twitter.com/2BHovstPOM
Saving Kids From Government Schools
It's school choice week!
What's that? It's a week about giving parents and kids a choice of schools, so they aren't stuck in failing, government-run schools.

The unions and politicians know that school choice will mean teacher lay offs and school closings. Both of which need to happen.

Not much different than anything Government run unfortunately

The NEA and its rank and file think they have all the answers. We know, of course, they are just protecting their turf. I have met home school graduates who run rings around their public school counterparts.

And they learn more in much less time, giving them increased recreation time.

I'm not against the idea of choice, BUT I think what you have to keep in mind is that the charter schools also get to pick their students. Almost anyone could run a school that looks better than public when they get to cherry-pick the best ones FROM the public.

Okay... Got to the "lottery" part, but STILL--who enters their kids into the lottery? It's informed parents who CARE about their kids' education. In other words, parents who are engaged and involved. Those kids are going to do better no matter which school they're in.
