What
s your take on Charter schools? My son went to one, and excelled once out of public school. They get minimal funding in most states, and consequently they must rely on parental involvement, and parents contributing needs, like paper cleaning supplies, bathroom needs, hand soap, etc etc. But we willingly did it, buying in bulk. The learning environment was much more inspiring for the kids too.

I support charter schools, as long as they are held accountable to meet educational standards.

In your charter school, were parents asked to shoulder some of the cost of textbooks? (Our of curiosity?)
