    Doesn’t surprise me; here in Arizona, charter schools greatly out-number state public schools, usually have a majority of white students enrolled, and have access to the same government funding that state public schools have access to.

    What started out as a way to offer private education on a state subsidized budget for disabled children like deaf, blind, or autistic, has been over-run by the elite as a way to have a private school without bearing 100% of the cost.

      They trying to expand that in my state now. How about we just put that money into public education? There are certainly some people that need special schools but most people don’t.
