Strange, isn't it? Our local CCSD superintendents and administrators have fought the new Charter School for Math and Science with all they've got. In fact, they're not finished yet--even though the end game is at hand.
So it seems hilarious that the P & C published on Monday's op-ed page a long piece by Eli Broad, founder of the Broad Foundation that produced Maria Goodloe-Johnson, Nancy McGinley, and Randy Bynum. In it Broad earnestly touts the benefits of public charter schools.
Maybe they didn't listen in class?

How about this, the same education at all schools for K-8.
No magnets, no charters, no public money paying private school tuitions, no more politicizing the educational process.
It's K-8 people. Please.
In a perfect world I'd agree with you. But as long as there are people within the system to tip the scales in favor of themselves or there friends, it will continue to be politicized. Let the market place prevail and let everyone have access to what the market will produce. Let the public choose what's best for them in a free, open and competative market. Eli Broad, the co-founder and billionaire owner of KB Homes, should understand this.
I loved that commentary and found it very interesting as well...
