Reply to comment by Girthero in Landmark Pa. school funding case decided: The state’s system is unconstitutional by Hashslingingslashar

Thank you for the added insight. I am on the side of cutting out the Charter schools all together, the continued tax hike to accommodate the fraud of paying the Charter schools over sending kids to the public school is choking the real estate potential for the area. I can’t justify staying here any longer if taxes continue to rise, it’s theft the amount we are charged, $8k alone for larger homes in the area.

I wish the kids would go to CASD, if it’s as thriving as you have pointed out. I’m unsure if the press is the sole factor why parents are not sending them there, additionally no one in the state seems to be doing anything about CASD if the problems are also due to economy of scale. It’s so obvious something is not right there, and we just all continue to be ok with each hike.

Yeah I'm in that camp. Charter schools always sounded like a band-aid type solution anyway. Instead of fixing the problems we're just choking the already failing school of funds and exporting them to another school where nothing stops them from eventually having the same problems of poor management, corruption, poor teachers over time.

Also I always felt like charter kind of robbed that sense of community public schools give.

Again never blamed anyone for wanting to send their kids there, but as a society I feel like this is not the most efficient use of our tax dollars.
