Ana’s op-ed about how charter schools can help our education system was published in the Philadelphia Inquirer. Below is an excerpt:
“Charter schools, publicly funded institutions with a charter that grants more autonomy, but imposes more accountability compared to traditional schools. If charters don’t meet their obligations to their constituencies, they face closure — their charters themselves can always be revoked” said Ana Meyers, PCPCS Executive Director. “And if charters are not doing their job, parents can take the kids out, whereas they often cannot remove their kids from a failing neighborhood school”.
