Here’s an interesting Op/Ed
Here’s an interesting Op/Ed that claims Charter schools beat vouchers. The author apparently believes that these two are mutually exclusive. Here’s a snip:
Minnesota’s public charter schools achieve these goals far better than private school vouchers. Here’s the difference. Charter school laws stimulate real education reform. Vouchers merely fund an existing system of private and religious schools. Consider:
• Innovation. If the goal is to stimulate innovation and change from the smallest school to the largest school district, then charter schools do it better. Charter school laws allow someone other than the local school board to create and run a public school. The result? Charter schools give parents and teachers the freedom to be better.
