do Charter Schools work? Well according to Dr. Derek Black in Salon today.
"There is a lot of misguided, fanciful thinking around these topics. When you compare apples to apples, public schools, on average, have long outperformed charter schools. The difference between private and public schools is only marginal, with public schools just slightly outperforming private schools. "
understand he is talking about 2 different things, private and charter...confusing but not the same....Texas will have both it seems. Funded unwillingly and wunwittingly by us and with good reason..they don't increase ...i dunno...smarts? Smart kids in private schools do the same as smart kids in public school except of course they learn to use their pinkies whilst sipping tea.....and make good dues paying country club snobs....
"The reason why some private schools have higher average scores isn’t because they are teaching something special but because they don’t have any or many low-income students. " - Duh...i didn't need to be a Country Day grad to figure that out..
the Salon article is 101 on why Abbott is so intent on destroying ur public education system....
Also one left over fetish....PubEd his home to a couple of very large unions.....who tend to think Abott et. al. are dumber than the rocks holding up a cedar fence post and love the Clinton's.
PSS: we just built a brand new state of the art elem school in my tony n'hood seemingly with corporate sponsors out the ying-yang according to the signs out front while one low income elem is located approximate 15Ft from 1-35 and the exhaust and noise of a zillion cars a day.
PSSSSS: some charter schools execs, they don't call em principles...make over $600k voted in by u guessed it, the Board...the is no oversight or law about salaries......also most teachs couldn't pass the Teacher' Accreditation test cause then they would want to work in public schools with higher salaries, HC, stuff like that.
Anyway in case u don't know ...charters, vouchers, etc. is all an attempt to stop educating minorities and further harm teacher's unions.....and nothing to do with public education.
