yes, primary because of schools that give those that struggle in regular schools do to various reasons, a second chance in a safer environment.

 @9K39GG2Free Democraticfrom Virginia  answered…11mos11MO

Yes, but only if the school population shows no sign of discrimination by the school selection committees.

 @9HRKVQVTheanswered…1yr1Y

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

 @99GDKWXAlliance for Germanyfrom Pennsylvania  answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, even if it "increase[s] the segregation of pupils by their parents’ income class."

 @gabehwknsanswered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but public school needs to be overhauled and the funding for charter schools should come largely from the states.

 @4Y3DHZCanswered…4yrs4Y

Yes, only if the quality of education is equal to or higher than public or other private schools

 @8QDSNZY from New York  answered…4yrs4Y

No, but they can exist as long as they don't interfere with public schools

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

How do you think the quality of your education would change if your school was privately managed?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

Do you believe schools should be more like businesses, or should they remain under public control, and why?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

What factors would make you choose (or avoid) attending a charter school if given the chance?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

How do you feel about the idea that some students have better educational opportunities because they can attend a charter school while others cannot?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

Do you think schools should be allowed to make a profit, or should education be seen as a public service that isn’t focused on money?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

If a charter school promised smaller class sizes but less funding for extracurricular activities, would that be a good trade-off for you?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

Do you think it’s fair for public school systems to compete with charter schools for funding, or does one naturally deserve more resources?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

How might the presence of charter schools affect the community where you live, both positively and negatively?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

Should parents be allowed to choose which school their child attends, even if it means the public funding is distributed unevenly?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

If charter schools result in higher test scores for students, does that mean our public education system should adopt similar methods?

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

 @8JTDV5W from Ohio  answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, but only if they are non-profit, not at the expense of funding public schools, and are not religous

 @92YHQCV from California  answered…3yrs3Y

No, because education should not be privatized, and we should focus on improving our public schools and increasing teacher wages instead

 @8GBB4FJ from Wisconsin  answered…4yrs4Y

 @4BPXZFJanswered…4yrs4Y

 @2PR69DManswered…4yrs4Y

No, broadband should be nationalized, guaranteed, and all education online only

 @7VXCKJ2 from Kentucky  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, and make all funding in form of vouchers to parents to make the best decision for their children.

 @7PTCG38 from Wisconsin  answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, if they are non-profit but not at the expense of funding public schools

 @87V5TYY from Connecticut  answered…4yrs4Y

 @87V5TYY from Connecticut  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but only for non-profits and our public education should also be improved

 @87V5TYY from Connecticut  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but only non-profits and our public education should also be improved

 @7PTCG38 from Wisconsin  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but only if they are non-profit and the funding for improvement of our public schools is not compromised.

 @7PTCG38 from Wisconsin  answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, but not at the expense of funding public schools and only if the charter schools are non-profit

 @8FPLGKD from Texas  answered…4yrs4Y

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.

 @8H9WHD9 from Hawaii  answered…4yrs4Y

I went to a charter school and it was a shelter for all the rich kids of lanikai.

 @LangworthyUS9th from Michigan  answered…4yrs4Y

I fully support federal school choice voucher program. Parents can send their children to private schools, charter schools, religious schools, or homeschool

 @8LSVCGK from New Jersey  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but with no gov't funding nor the expense of taxpayers and public schools

 @8NZXHQG from Pennsylvania  answered…4yrs4Y

 @8PMF46F from Ohio  answered…4yrs4Y

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.

  @8TKFNNS from Texas  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes Education is super important for everyone including Self Education.

 @8VJQ9QW from Ohio  answered…3yrs3Y

 @8Z3NQVS from Michigan  answered…3yrs3Y

 @93ZP8QG from North Carolina  answered…2yrs2Y

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.

 @99G2ZRRfrom New York  answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, they can be for-profit but also must have input from parents regarding expenses and costs.

  Deletedanswered…4yrs4Y

Yes, and our entire education system should be privatized. Charter schools, Military schools, and religious schools teaches our kids values and responsibility.

 @92RVS89 from Pennsylvania  answered…3yrs3Y

Only if charter schools stop taking money from public schools while also cherry picking who they admit.

 @8ZM5S5G from New York  answered…3yrs3Y

yes somewhat because it gives people the rights and the freedom to express themselves

  Deletedanswered…3yrs3Y

Yes, our entire education system should be privatized - BUT, non-profit. Kind of like the Salvation Army.
