    This website contains comparative data for charter school performance, funding, student populations, and policy for each state and DC. It really helps put DC's educational problems into perspective.

  3. Four new charters were recently approved. Why are we adding more when the ones we have are not succeeding??

  4. At least a bunch were denied? I like how the article talks about how rigorously the applications were reviewed. I wonder what the opening of four new charter schools will do to enrollment in public schools/existing charter schools?!?!
