The charter school has 75 kindergarteners every hear, but every grade after that has one-third of that number. It would seem they are culling the heard to the best prospects.

The charter school is in a decrepit old condominium clubhouse — no ultra-modern, ultra-posh, ultra-expensive facilities. That doesn’t jibe with the education establishment always saying Performance = f($).

The article addresses that with what I think is a reasonable explanation.

The shrinkage from K is not unique among private and charter schools and is not always cherry-picking.

My FL high school (graduated 1981) had no AC , just jalousie windows ... only the Library had AC to keep the books from getting moldy... it was by far the best school performance-wise in the area. The quality of the teachers at my kids schools is appalling , but my wife won’t let me home school them..
