Delaware Charter Schools: Separate, Unequal

A study conducted by The Western Michigan University Evaluation Center found that Delawares charter school experiment is resulting in a resegregation of schools and the predictable negatives that go along with that separation. Minority schools are under-funded, under-performing and under-staffed. I have always feared that resegregation was the goal of some in the Charter movement in DE. If you put this in the context of Christina’s decision to close city schools you can see that we are really doing a disservice to our largely minority city students.
