charters: public or private?
The issue is complicated. But I find it hard to refer to charter
schools—as they have evolved—as public schools. If they are for-profit,
they should not be called public schools. There is simply no precedent
in American history for a profit-making public school with stockholders.
All public money allotted to a public school should be spent by the
school and in the school on teaching and learning, on bringing the
students to school, and on maintenance of the facility.
