Did not say ALL only SOME are doing this.

Another big donor from the charter school world, giving for the first time this cycle, is from a sister company of Charter Schools USA, a Fort Lauderdale-based, for-profit charter school network, known as EduServe Inc. It has given $2,500 each to incumbents Dyason and Gaudet as well as District 1 incumbent Mark Bellue. Charter Schools USA operates South Baton Rouge Charter Academy, which is chartered through the parish school system.

That charter school and its sister school Iberville Charter Academy have come under scrutiny recently after state-hired auditors concluded that Iberville Charter has been improperly charging what amounts to tuition to students at seven remote learning pods spread across the state in addition to the per pupil funding those students receive. Representatives of the charter school have aggressively disputed the audit, saying the charges were not tuition but legitimate fees and that the audit is “of no value and should be discarded.”
