Charter schools have been the answer to the private and public school debate. Charter school look like they could be the answer for public and private school dilemma, but I would disagree. Charter schools are a mixture of public and private schools. The get public funding like public school and have to adhere to the Department of Education’s standards. The other half of their budget comes from private hands or companies that donate the money. Charter school has certain standards already place but how they go about it is up to the school because they get private money as well. Even though they cannot discriminated against students seeking to come to the school they do not have to let them in for legitment reasons. The more private money a charter school gets the more they can act like a private school and lose over-site. Another problem is a community or parents run the school, which is usually not an option in the inner cities. They are not being developed in poor areas, so that does not have them, and makes it more like the private school problem we are still facing and they get public funding.
