PA: Charter reform law voted out of House committee, more revisions likely
The Notebook (Philadephia Public School System) – April 18, 2017
The letter points out that the new bill does nothing the address issues of inequity that could arise between charters and its public school district. “Any matrix should include criteria that evaluates, relative to the authorizing school district, how equitably a charter school serves students in poverty, students with the full range of disabilities, English Learner students, and students experiencing homelessness and foster care.”
