Failing charter finally closes and principal collects a cool half million. Why oversight ought to be important.
I just spoke at the Atlanta Rotary Club meeting about the charter school amendment on next week’s ballot.
One point that came up was whether the state had sufficient monitors/regulators in place to keep tabs on the charter schools it will approve if the charter school amendment is passed next week. (I noted that whether it’s bridges, day care centers or nursing homes, the state never has enough compliance officers to keep up with the recommended number of inspections, reviews and followups.)
Most charter schools in Georgia are approved by local school boards where the distribution of funding is uniform
