Not all are "private charters". NONE are "private charters".
A lot of traditional public schools have "selective" enrollment policies.
Some schools MUST have "selective enrollment" - as in my son's Spanish immersion school. For upper grades, you have to be bilingual and BILITERATE on grade level in order to go there. Which only makes sense. In the primary entry grades - there are "set-asides" of appx 50% for Native Spanish speakers and non-native Spanish speakers. . .
Sorry - didn't mean to seem like I was jumping on you. I just hear this argument time and again and it's all so blatantly FALSE! I don't understand what part of it they don't understand. It's very plain and simple. Charters are free public schools . Period.
I do get a wee bit carried away on occasion.
