While I like the concept of school choice, I don’t think the charter school program has been successful thus far. I fear this will be an even bigger boondoggle, but I will need to see more about this plan.

Charter programs in Orleans Parish have brought the condition of public schools in that parish from completely horrific, to on average, simply bad. There are a few charter schools doing very well by any standard, but they are all magnet "test to get in" type schools.

One thing I do like about charters is that if they suck, they get closed. Even if voucher schools suck, they keep getting voucher money, I beleive.
