I am honestly stunned to see that one thousand people have added their names to this. This belongs entirely to the community members who refused to stay quiet.

I am truly stunned by the momentum we have built together. This outcome is entirely a testament to your passion for our local schools rather than anything I have done. We have turned a corner that I never thought possible when this began.

When you hire an out of State, for profit, company to educate your children you have a problem. In private industry when you want to boost profits, the first item cut is training. The business model does not work with a students education.
Free public schools, open to everyone, are the basis of democracy. Public schools need to be kept free and public. Profiteers must be kept awayat all costs, especially with their empty promises. Read Reign of Error and rethink this, York.
Read the reports of other cities that have been given to charter school businesses. A few people make a lot of money at the expense of children, families, teachers, administrators, and local economies. The Charter School Movement is a treacherous game
Charter schools do not serve the public. They marginalize special ed students and English language learners, besides mistreating teachers and school support staff. Do not betray York's children by giving away their schools to Charter Schools USA.
This is such an anti-American action - feels like we've been taken over by a dictatorship of corporations and their bought politicians. This is just wrong and those who are associated with it will reap what they have sewn - injustice.
Not a good idea!!!!
This has not been a good idea in the past and will not be a good idea in the future.

Taking "ownership" away from the district and the citizens it serves and replacing local leadership with an out of state, for profit corporationby it's ver nature takes the focus from educating and serving the developmental needs of children.
