I fully support the recent Washington State Supreme Court’s decision regarding the constitutionality of charter schools.  Charter schools are just another way for further dividing an already very divided country.

People seem to forget the big push for them started in the South as a way to continue to keep their schools segregated.

Too many politicians have jumped on the bandwagon, not because they feel education in this country will improve but because it diverts the public’s attention from the fact they have completely failed in their obligation and reasonability to see that every child regardless of neighborhood receive a quality and meaningful education that will in fact improve their economic status.
