Charter schools...an underminer of our public system

“Charters vs  public schools”

Voicer Martin Brahms’ letter on charter schools was spot-on. Nationally, Washington’s large array of charter schools is considered the best in the US.  But a just-released study of DC charter schools reveals that about 90% of them serve far fewer at-risk kids than nearby regular public schools. Charter schools are part of a national campaign to undermine the public schools that, under- and unevenly funded, have served 90% of our growing population.
