Public Charter Schools: Time and the Law on Their Side

Why do CCSD public charter schools have so much community support? Perhaps the answer is as obvious to you as to me: because schools run by the Charleston County Schools Superintendent, Nancy McGinley, and the School Board have not been doing their job.

Proof? They just discovered that literacy should be their top priority.

The latest ruling in favor of CCSD public charter schools [see Charter Schools Win Ruling] must have these individuals weeping, wailing, and gnashing their teeth. The chickens done come home to roost. The handwriting is on the wall. The fat lady is beginning her song.

Such rulings may or may not be appealed successfully, but the day of the all-powerful local school board made up of self-aggrandizing individuals is over.

Time is on our side and that of our community's children.
