Charter schools are tax payer funded K-12 schools that are managed by private companies. In Germany charter schools may only be set up if they do not increase the segregation of pupils by their parents’ income class. Private schools are supported financially by government bodies, comparable to charter schools. The amount of control over school organization, curriculum etc. taken over by the state differs from state to state and from school to school. Academically, all private schools must lead their students to the ability to attain standardized, government-provided external tests such as the Abitur.
@9K39GG2Free Democratic2mos2MO
Yes, but only if the school population shows no sign of discrimination by the school selection committees.
No, that particularly segregates children from each other. Schools need to have the same standard overall in a country.
Yes, but the school program must be identical to the national program OR more advanced (for particularly gifted students).
Yes, I approve of their presence but preferring that students attend public schools
Yes, even if it "increase[s] the segregation of pupils by their parents’ income class."
I dont understand this well enough
@99G2ZRR1yr1Y
Yes, they can be for-profit but also must have input from parents regarding expenses and costs.
@93ZP8QG2yrs2Y
Yes, but not at the expense of funding public schools. State funds should be directed toward improving our public schools, education programs, and increasing teacher wages.
@92YHQCV2yrs2Y
No, because education should not be privatized, and we should focus on improving our public schools and increasing teacher wages instead
@92RVS892yrs2Y
Only if charter schools stop taking money from public schools while also cherry picking who they admit.

Just get the government out of education completely

Yes, and our entire education system should be privatized. Charter schools, Military schools, and religious schools teaches our kids values and responsibility.
@89SH3SL3yrs3Y
Yes, but transition them to private funding
@87W9GJ43yrs3Y
Yes, only if they're non profit and don't affect public schooling
@8PMF46F3yrs3Y
Parents should have the right to send their children to private school, K-12, but on their own dime or through scholarships/loans, not at the expense of public education and the taxpayer. So yes, charter schools should be abolished.
@88LK76J3yrs3Y
Yes but only if the public schools are failing
@85Z5SQ33yrs3Y
yes but we need to focus on public schools as well
@8NZXHQG3yrs3Y
Yes, but we should also be focusing on improving our public schools.
@89SH3SL3yrs3Y
No, government should not fund education
@6HDD83R3yrs3Y
Nationalize all educational institutions (e.g. schools, colleges, universities, etc) in the U.S. and ensure free and public education, where a High School diploma or a GED shall be one of the requirements to attend a college or university
- K-4, 5-8, 9-12 grade levels
- Monotheistic religious education should be introduced (or reintroduced) as a school subject
- Socially useful school subjects should take priority over other subjects, while any non-socially useful class subjects shall be optional (in the form of electives)
- By the U.S. law, every public school must be required to establish 20 as the limit on the number of students per classroom
@8LSVCGK3yrs3Y
Yes, but with no gov't funding nor the expense of taxpayers and public schools
@LangworthyUS9th3yrs3Y

@8J4H94B3yrs3Y
i dont really know what this means
@4BPXZFJ3yrs3Y
Yes, but only when there is proper oversight by the state.
@7VXCKJ23yrs3Y
Yes, and make all funding in form of vouchers to parents to make the best decision for their children.
@2PR69DM4yrs4Y
No, broadband should be nationalized, guaranteed, and all education online only
@gabehwkns4yrs4Y
Yes, but public school needs to be overhauled and the funding for charter schools should come largely from the states.
@8H9WHD94yrs4Y
I went to a charter school and it was a shelter for all the rich kids of lanikai.
@8GBB4FJ4yrs4Y
Yes, but schools that fail need to be held accountable.
@8FPLGKD4yrs4Y
No, for-profit charter schools are too unstable due to the number of children that are left without a school when one gets shut down. Non-profit and rural charter school options have valid implementations, though.
@8FDNNMS4yrs4Y
I don't have an opinion one way or another.
