I’d say the Washington Middle School PTA has some explaining to do.
This is the flyer that went out to all of the parents at the middle school for High School Success Night:

And don’t they know that charters are against the law in our state?
I suspect that a privatizer, or a friend of a privatizer, has a child at Washington Middle School, and, as we all know, charters MUST budget time and money for Sales & Marketing. And this is part of it.
However, the privatizers, and those in their elite socioeconomic circles, NEVER send their own precious progeny to a charter. But, they’re apparently willing and able to use their own school to help the charter market theirs. What was this person thinking?
