how did they get poor exactly red? havent you guys been gutting public education at every available opportunity? for schools that work, for profit...

excerpt:

Terri Griffin made herself a promise when her youngest daughter was ready for kindergarten: the little girl would never set foot in an Akron public school. Griffin, an Akron jewelry store clerk who is a graduate of the Ohio city’s school system, had sent eight children — two of her own and six others she raised as her own — to traditional public schools.
She felt they were pushed through to a diploma and didn’t learn enough. Teachers were eager to recommend special education, but Griffin couldn’t get them to provide other basic extra help. Two years ago when her youngest daughter was entering kindergarten, she sought out a charter school, Lighthouse Academy, and hoped for a better outcome.
Griffin didn’t know about the Lighthouse Academy’s low test scores or that it had been identified as being in an academic emergency by the state on and off since opening in 2000. Instead, when she visited the West Akron school, Griffin saw caring teachers working with small classes in a school that was well established in the community. She hasn’t once regretted her decision.
Now, under Ohio’s charter school closure law, considered the toughest in the nation, Lighthouse Academy is slated to be closed at the end of the year. The 2006 law mandates that any charter school that has received the state’s Academic Emergency rating or been placed on academic watch for two out of three years will be shut down. (The ratings are based on state test scores.)
Most of Lighthouse’s 66 students will be thrust back into the same public schools their parents tried to flee. Nearby public schools only perform slightly better than Lighthouse on standardized tests, and some do just as poorly.
The closure is another blow for the children of this fading industrial city, where a third of all children live in poverty and about a quarter of high schoolers fail to graduate. It’s a scenario becoming familiar to thousands of families in the nation’s poorest neighborhoods as more and more districts start cracking down on low-performing charter schools, which get public funds but operate without the usual bureaucratic constraints.

public school and the love of my parents taught me to read, you want the charter schools because the public ones arent fulfilling your roll as a parent... ;). you want smarter children but not on your dime, glad you trust strangers so much. i want my children educated in an accountable system, held to a publicly informed standard, and then beat into submission by me and the like minded... since i cant financially contribute a new wing and get them to change point of views...

Meaning what? That if the (liberal) public schools were better run then 85% of people would believe Romney got Bin Laden?
