From James A. Williams, Superintendent of Buffalo Public Schools:
“I’m not afraid of charter schools. I want to learn from them.”
And from Arne Duncan, CEO of Chicago Public Schools:
“[Creating charter schools] is about a lot more than education. It’s really about a movement for social justice. Our kids desperately need to have the best education possible.”
“I’m not an ideological person but I like the competition and choice [charter schools] provide.”
Again, thanks to M. Goldstein for forwarding these.
