Charter School: A Short Story

In “Forget about charter schools,” Samuel Abrams, implies that we should incorporate business concepts to schools. Milton Friedman, a renown economist from the University of Chicago, called for a free market approach to schools in 1955. He said it would be it improve the educational system and parents and students would have a greater choice in their education. Furthermore, Freidman contended that it would free students from segregated schools and that would produce competition amongst schools. The problem with Milton’s assertions is that they would not create more competition; instead, they would create more segregation where the disadvantaged would be forced to pay for schools out of pocket if they wanted their children to go to better

The author of Passage A, Robert Maranto, demonstrates his levels in support of charter schools. He reinforces the use of charter schools movement to change the educational system in the United States. He states that charter schools have a better academic record. However, the author supported his ideas with research; the studies were only based on a two year frame work with successful academic achievements on charter schools. He assumed that charter schools would continue to grow upon public school causing termination on public schools due to lack of leadership. However you look at it, he did not state more evidence to support his idea. The author referred to research that charter schools will do

Seventh grade was a year of transition, (kind of a metamorphosis) a steady evolution from young girls racing after Paul Stevenson to the more mature 2.0 version that comes from a daily diet of Fall Out Boy and Ludacris. Ah, yes, seventh grade was a year of routy students, computer privileges, and then?..the taking away of computer privileges. It?s a shame how much one little video and a few dumb seventh grade girls can do.

Charter schools are all the buzz in the media lately; they are what seems to be the sensible response to the path traditional public schools are heading, down the drain. However, charter schools still face many obstacles and issues, stemming from the fact that they are far less regulated than their public school counterparts. This enacts issues including lack of quality control, increased segregation, and severe misuse of funds. Likewise, charter schools are only going to become increasingly more competitive and higher quality if their closest competitors follow that path, meaning the most successful charters are the ones compared directly to private schools. Since charters are also attempting to make a profit, they will go to all extents, including discrimination to bring up the scores, and therefore gain more leverage in negotiating for more funds. Simply enough, the most logical and simple way to prevent charter schools from degrading in quality or becoming out of control is to put more regulation on them, while still allowing them to maintain many characteristics of an independent charter.

"You know, 20 years ago when I started in this business, I never had to have discussions with the computer folks. My, how have times changed! Today, about 90% of my equipment located within the facility can be managed via my laptop and Web browser. Whenever I plug my laptop into the telephone looking jack in the wall, my operating system says that I'm now operating at 10 megabits. Then, whenever I browse to my equipment, I cannot retrieve any data. After going back and forth with the HVAC support techs, they determined that my connection needed to be 100 megabits. They said it must be my network

Charter schools are a type of public school that is open enrollment. It has been growing immensely as the years go on. 42 out of the 50 states have voted that charter schools are a part of their state’s education system.

Charter schools offer much more than public schools do, like smaller classrooms and extended one-on-one time. Charter schools are “independent entities that have received a charter, which is a set of self-written rules (and promises) about how the school will be structured and run” (Pascual, 2016, The Truth About Charter Schools). This means that they have their own rules that work for the children and meet their individual needs. The schools could change the rules, as generations change, to accommodate different students. With the unity and numbers of millennials, charter schools could be known as the best type of schools for students to succeed in future colleges and jobs. In my essay I will back up Cahn and Cahns’ prediction that millennials have what it takes to make it well known that charter schools are the best schools.
