Charter Schools are a scam. These schools receive taxpayer money and/or public resources, but have no obligation to take in all students. They achieve higher outcomes by barring or expelling low-achievers and vulnerable populations. They drain resources from our public schools while leaving them with the biggest challenges, then they have the gall to say that their system works better.
Free, appropriate public education is not only a right of every American, it is one of the pillars upon which our nation's strength is built. Charter schools are bad for students, and bad for America.
