Here we go! 4 NEW charter schools may open in Pittsburgh next year. Granted, one is very small but is smack in Sq. Hill.

It has always seemed that PPS assesses the applications fairly and puts a lot of time and effort into doing it. There is a definite lack of oversight of charters and that must be addressed by Harrisburg.

The increased charter school enrollment while PPS is declining is surely a referendum on our eight years of administration by Roosevelt/Lane/Weiss/Fischetti.
