    Public school choice is not the culprit in inequality. Let’s fix systemic injustice– not demonize charters.http://www.essence.com/news/john-legend-charter-public-schools-naacp …

        I like you, but 'charters' is too broad a comment to support, politically.

        Frankly speaking - few people at odds with charter ideals, but very worried about industry pushing them into our communities.

        that choice privileges a few kids in a lottery, and disadvantages the other 96% of students. That's no good.

        What if paying for charters worsens the inequality, a la Question 2 in MA? We cant afford the charters we have - 12 more a year?

        As more money leaves a bad performing school. The fix cost of running the school stays the same with less people to spread.

        Who are Charter schools responsible to? If they aren't responsible to the school board for underperformance?
