Some chatter schools operate on a for profit model. They are responsible for reporting results similar to other for profit companies. In other words, students are expected to achieve and most do. Teachers are expected to achieve, administrators are expected to achieve because it’s all tied to the bottom line. You can imagine how much the Department of Education is threatened by this model though because it shows that a school can achieve results while making a profit.

That’s not scalable though and there will undoubtedly be huge swaths of the county that will be left in the dust because they’re poor. If the students can’t pay for the education who does? The DoE? Now we’re back where we started

Regarding the Department of Education, yes, they are threatened by these schools that currently exist. However, we should work to encourage more business owners to establish charter schools because they have proven to be successful. We can’t let government bureaucracy stand in the way of children’s education. Libertarian’s are ready for this. On the federal level the past two presidential candidates wanted to abolish the department of education.

If the charter school is in their district they are not left out. Charter schools are free,. How is it not scalable if they meet the Department of Education standards?
