In LAUSD, charter schools educate, while the union run government schools hold kids hostage.
Is the purpose of public education helping children or making unions powerful? In most district, owned by unions, it is about union control and money--children are not even a second thought.
"Overall, L.A. charter students score significantly higher on standardized tests than their counterparts in traditional schools. But even some of the most strenuous charter advocates are wary of a blanket assumption that charters are superior, in part because they are so different from traditional schools and from one another."
The choice is simple: want a good education for your child, or do you want unions to maintain control? Your child or the union. That is why charter schools are growing,even in LAUSD.
"Today, Los Angeles is home to more than 160 charter schools, far more than any other U.S. city. Charter enrollment is up nearly 19% this year from last, while enrollment in traditional L.A. public schools is down. And a once-hostile school board has become increasingly charter-friendly, despite resistance from the teachers union. In September, the board agreed to let charters bid on potentially hundreds of existing campuses and on all 50 of its planned new schools."
