More lies about charter schools
Sue sent me what seemed to be the practiced lines of one well rehearsed in arguments that we will be hearing to support having charter schools in our state. These lies and half-truths were found in the comment section of an article on Slog, the Stranger’s blog, Surprise! Billionaire Charter Schools Backers Buy Enough Signatures.
I will go through this person’s remarks and respond to each comment made:
“President Obama supports the expansion of public charter schools.”President Obama is listening to his Secretary of Education Arne Duncan who as CEO in Chicago started the boom in charter schools as supported by developers who successfully gentrified many of the communities in south Chicago.
