Can you explain this comment?


Charter schools and “school choice” are pet causes of the Republican Party.

I'm assuming they chose it because it's district run and dad had an idea for a future lawsuit.
agreed because up until a few years ago the family lived in Metairie

I’m sure Jefferson parish has schools to accommodate

Yep. This has been my position ever since I first stepped foot in a charter school 13 years ago.

interesting- she needs attention because something happened somewhere and she can’t talk about it

It’s a shame when kids do that

Cubbies... seriously, tell me more.

I believe all kids need an education whatever supports might be required. Now, I don't believe ALL schools need accommodate ALL variety of students. But, are kids being shafted?

And I know you have policy thoughts- what are your thoughts on how to accommodate IEP children and still have particular spaces for the gifted set? And also not skew the middle of the road population, of course.

After having spent a few minutes reading about them, I can see why you say that.

It appears to be a formula ripe for abuse.

this is shocking and not surprising all at once. I can’t imagine wasting all the money involved in moving just to upend your children’s lives and get attention.

No they aren't. If it weren't for leftists, they wouldn't even have believed they could be successful.

And exclusion. But the state really got lucky with the situation after Katrina. The population changes and enrollment funny business implemented by charter schools resulted in test scores that painted a very rosy picture of how successful charter schools are compared to pre-Katrina public schools (which, admittedly, left a lot to be desired)

There are a few charter schools I’m familiar with and abuse happens - not in the traditional physical sense - but for sure mental

Ok. Whatever point you think you’re making is totally irrelevant.

You did it. You owned the libs.

you mean Willow (Lusher) is better than Fortier??



I used to ride the public bus with Fortier boys - I already know the answer. Although my PawPaw went to Fortier for one year

I suspect Newman or St. Martin’s. Probably St. Martin’s since it’s in JP and they were apparently too scared to live in New Orleans at first.

My personal viewpoint on public education makes this a non-issue for me, but I do care about public money being funneled into private board member's pockets and other examples of waste and fraud.

Goes to show—again—that MAGA's outrage is highly selective.
