Students, Parents, and Advocates Demand Equity in Public Education
______________________________________________________________
Equity Won! On July 16th, thanks to the tireless work of young people, parents, educators and advocates who worked collaboratively to educate the community and policy-makers on the potential negative consequences of charter schools the Massachusetts, the Senate voted down a bill that would have allowed for charter school expansion across the State of Massachusetts.
We are not against charter schools, but want a public education system that works for all students, including students with disabilities and English language learners and has a commitment to helping all public schools improve, and where charter school funding doesn't drain funding from public schools.
