Please don't lump the ones that have worked out quite nicely with the ones that do a terrible job with the opportunity they are given. I've had some friends to go some simply awful charter schools that either didn't seem to know what they were doing, or just did it really poorly.

Class size is a bullshit argument that teachers' unions push on people.
