Anti-Charter School Resolutions in Washington State Including one from a PTA

Even though the House and Senate charter school bills both died in committee last week the battle still rages on. This in part due to Rodney Tom, State Senator for Bellevue, who halted the review of all bills brought into the Senate education committee because the charter school bill was not allowed review and also due to the continued push by Stand for Children and the League of Education Voters. All have vested interests is seeing a charter school bill pass in our state this year. Unfortunately their interests have nothing to do with our children.

Several resolutions have been passed by Democratic districts and organizations and to follow is the list that I have so far. If anyone else has additional resolutions that I can post, please send them to me and I will publish
