"Corporate Charter School Industry Resists Oversight at All Costs
From Suzy Oppenheimer, the Chair of NY Senate Education Committee:
. . . .State government's inability to successfully compromise and come to resolution on policy issues is unacceptable to me.
Some additional background is needed to give a fuller picture to your readers. As chair of the Senate Education Committee, I worked hard to forge a compromise that would have doubled the existing cap on charter schools, while at the same time adopting reasonable safeguards to ensure that state education dollars are used appropriately by charter school administrators."
