Charter public schools are achieving incredible results with California's most vulnerable students. Legislators should be championing these schools, not trying to close them down. #Stand4All #KidsNotPolitics @KevinMahnken @The74 hubs.ly/H0j7qvv0

"Nasty" & "vicious" is how the @latimes described education bills being pushed by Sacramento politicians in the #CALeg. We must defeat this extreme, politically-driven agenda that would harm CA's most vulnerable students. #KidsNotPolitics #Stand4All hubs.ly/H0j0V4S0
Editorial: California is weighing bills — some helpful, others vicious — to rein in charter schools

Editorial: California is weighing bills — some helpful, others vicious — to rein in charter schools

California has needed better regulation and tighter oversight of its charter schools for years, but state policymakers have been curiously deadlocked over making meaningful change.
