Every day another headline shakes the education piggy bank

Yet no coordinated t-shirts were printed, much less an article decrying the injustice of letting Bill S490, the Charter Schools Managed Growth Act, die in committee. All legislative efforts to raise or remove the charter school cap are now dead in the water. This will impact thousands of North Carolina families and their freedom to choose a quality school for their child. Where is the outrage? Isn’t this newsworthy?

Instead of action, our politicians have decided that yet another charter school study should be conducted before making any changes. Depending on who conducts that research, I can already report the results.

I guess the politicians missed (or ignored) the Newsweek story naming Raleigh Charter as the ninth best public high school in the nation. They must have been out buying a green t-shirt when the story broke.
