There is no fiscally responsible reason to add Charter schools to the stats funding model when we are in a budget deficit and our public schools are still under funded. Any legislation being proposed needs to be focused on fully funding our Public school first and foremost as has been reaffirmed by the courts. Additionally the school voucher program should be eliminated as it is yet another mechanism that is taking money away from public schools and is simply a "Educational Welfare" for the rich.
