Despite the popularity of charter schools and increased necessity of new learning options, a group of parents who want to start an online charter school are under attack by their local school board, who is leading a war that includes lies, distortions and hostile actions. The Teaneck School Board — fearing that a charter would take money from their district (which means they know people would leave??) has organized public forums during school hours, used children as carrier pigeons for propaganda, organized rallies and have now expended precious taxpayer time and resources to file a suit against the citizens who are applying and the state of New Jersey. The district wants an end put to such schools. Good try. Other school boards tried this in the early part of the state’s law and were twice rebuffed by the State Supreme Court. But they like getting in the way of the little people who dare to question their authority, so they’ve slung whatever they can at this school. They are trying to get parents, teachers, and principals from the area to speak at a rally they will hold on school property. Wonder who’s actually helping students learn while they are waging their private war? Link here to see some of their shenanigans and comment now!
