Charter Schools are about money, not education.

This is simply a maneuver to use public monies to privatize our public schools. Charter schools use public monies without public oversight. Pennsylvania is a rich state, it is a failure of our capitalistic system if it can't support public education that is truly public.

A country that cannot educate its citizens without profit risks the future of its own democracy.

Corporations run charter schools. Their goal is to make money, and only secondarily to educate. Education should be the first and ONLY goal of a school district.

We are supposed to be a free country with free education supported by the public not private corporations.

Keep education where it belongs - with educators not corporations.

charterizing our public schools only leads to greater disparity! Charter schools do not improve the educational outcomes for our children and are less accountable to the taxpayer. Cyber charters all do worse! This needs to stop. Invest in our public schools, not in their private takeover!

Oddly, the advertisement on this page is for Pa Virtual Cyber-Charter school. Money is awash in this issue and the students and the tax-paying community are the ones who will lose
