Why do public schools want your children enrolled?

Well, I'm surprised anyone would not know the true answer to that question. It has nothing to do with education my friends.

That answer, in short, is MONEY.

"If we could get just 10 students back from a charter school, that would be worth it," said Fantini, a 25-year veteran on the committee. Because the district has to provide money to charter schools that enroll its students, he added, "At $15,000 per student, you're talking about $150,000."

It's basic public school math folks....

10 students
+ public school
-----------------
$150,000



I hear nothing mentioned of where the child is best educated. It doesn't even seem to be a factor.
