We do not oppose charter schools when they act as they are supposed to-as partners to the public schools in their communities and as innovation laboratories, but we are troubled by increasing support for charters in an era when our true public schools are being told there isn’t money to fund all of their needs. We agree with this statement by NSBA and recommend contacting your FEDERAL LEGISLATORS. http://schoolboardnews.nsba.org/2014/05/nsba-disapprove-congress-attempt-to-expand-charter-schools/
