Public School Alternatives

http://66.225.205.104/CT20110520.mp3

Public School Alternatives Budget concerns in public school systems like the ones CMS is experiencing can lead to concerns about the quality of education for those systems. This often leads families to choose alternatives to traditional public education, in the form of private school, charter school, or home school. We'll talk about the different educational alternatives and about a bill in the state house that would raise the cap on the number of charter schools allowed in the state. Guests Darrell Allison - President of Parents for Educational Freedom in North Carolina Dr. Jim Watson - Asst. Professor in the Dept. of Educational Leadership at UNC Charlotte Add and read comments
