Yes, Charter Schools are a public/private partnership. He’s on the board of directors for charter school companies. So, instead of accountable school boards and property taxes going to public schools, Charter Schools will have no accountability and your tax dollars will go to a private corporation. Jeb Bush will make billions.

Accountable school boards? Accountable to government unions generally, not parents.

Charters are accountable to the parents. Is "corporation" a pejorative to you like it is to most leftists?

from Michelle Malkin:

“Can you spell b-o-o-n-d-o-g-g-l-e? Remember: Bush’s educational foundation, the Foundation for Excellence in Education, is tied at the hip to the federally funded testing consortium called PARCC (Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers), which raked in $186 million through Race to the Top to develop nationalized tests “aligned” to the top-down Common Core program.”

I know of two cases where the director of a charter school evidently, mistakenly, believed that charter schools are a public/private partnership. They were removed.
