Derrick Thompson Very astute point that I knew Stossel would ignore. However, this only implies that it’s extremely difficult to do an apples to apples comparisons of performance. Choice and flexibility are still the strongest arguments for private schools. It is not the responsibility of private schools to fix all of society’s ills. The best thing about a growing private school system is that it segregates the dregs from the wine. If you care about your child’s education, there is a strong likelihood you will get them in a private school if your public school is poor. If you or your child don’t care, well, we can always spend more per capita on your student. Eventually, some public schools will shrink until we rename them as juvenile part-time detention centers.

My only complaint with the long school days is that it's abusive. If kids enjoy it, I don't have a problem with it. I was unschooled, I prefer unschooling, I also recognize it might not be for everyone.

Here is the problem with public schools: The state and federal government controls the teacher with heavy regulations and guidelines. It has both the negatives of being politicized as well as unionized. At the moment the public school system is run more like a factory, there is a bell, there are instructions to follow, and that is it. Charter schools are mostly montessori. While public schools are mostly traditional. Each teacher has a preference and should be teaching a model that they are comfortable and enjoy doing. Very few teachers are good with the traditional method, it is boring for most and you can tell there is no life in the teacher.

I love my charter school but the retention rates are terrifying. In the middle school alone, in a 2 month period, 2-3 kids left in a single week. I don’t get it. They’re all like “pUbLiC iS bEtTeR” but they’re probably gonna get beat up or something. 4 of my closest friends were there on the beginning of 7th. By 8th grade, only a single person remained. Another kid was talking about a nearby public saying how a sink broke off the wall because of a kids head getting bashed into it (I think) Sure our principal isn’t the best but it’s still an awesome school.

As someone who went to public school I’m very grateful to have gotten an education... but it made me suicidal and depressed. I was miserable and so were my friends none of us wanted to even go to class. I didn’t learn much, most of the things I learned were thanks to books and friends tutoring me. The teachers could care less, I begged my parents to be homeschooled. Public schools are a scam they don’t even provide the minimum. If you have children please homeschool or do literally anything else.

My teachers never taught or explained anything, they made us only do book work and look up answers if we didn’t understand.

anyone else notice that the successful charter schools have male teachers in them?

One thing that all NY schools do that most of the rest don't is separate children by test scores so that struggling kids are taught in the same school and the high achieving kids go to a different school. Every year a kid can apply for a slot at a better school if they have improved academically and can handle the harder work.

That girl that read a hundred books, and is obviously proud of the achievement. Warms my heart. She is not "acting white." She is ambitious, curious, smart and hungry to want to know. We tie ourselves into pretzel knots trying to get kids to do this. And yet - five thousand ideologies are somehow more important? Of course - when the object of the game is to clone little activists. Um, I became a bit of an activist in my life (something started long ago and continued ever since) AFTER I got a liberal education. That decision was made in my own way and under my own terms. It required joining no organization, or any identity group other than the human race, the best (and by far most powerful) identity group of them all. Public schools are hardly "public" at all - in that they labor on outside of majority parental approval (and especially more so, if most parents actually knew and understood what they're up to). Education has been hijacked. By "experts" who wish to prevent it from actually happening. And they do this by bullying young and innocent children into submission. And if they fail to do that, well then, they just systematically turn the kids off. There are a lot of those. The ones that read at a grade three level - in grade eight. The ones who never catch up. I had a "troubled" childhood. What saved Me? Two things. Books. And a very real freedom to escape the oppression of adults and go out into the real world and discover what I was reading about. Those two things danced together well enough to set me straight. And if I could do it - almost anyone could. I'm Joe Average. Pleased to meet cha.

Having gone to a charter school myself, I can say that charter schools are not what they lead themselves to be. They have no incentive to help struggling students as they only care to boost their scores on national charts. As such students who struggle get dropped and sent to regular public schools lowering those schools score because those charter schools refuse to bother helping those students improve. They also run their teachers like retail store associates. 5 of my teachers were fired for disagreeing with certain aspects with how money was divided into the school. The principle of my school would embezzle funds and shift it around to other schools in their industry. Sometimes taking this money directly from students own fundraisers.

How can they manage a 7:45 till 16:30 day, that's 8 hours and 45 mins, they don't get much time out of school

It depends on what state we're talking about. Many of the for-profit charter schools in Michigan perform worse than public schools, and because funding to schools depends on how many kids show up, charter schools dilute funding. It's not a black and white issue. There do need to be some standards and oversight.

There oversight is parents. If they underperform parents can pull their kids out and put them back in traditional public schools. Who knows better what a kid needs the parents or the government?

It’s called “School Choice” for a reason. If you want to send your child to a crappy government run school, you’re free to do so just as a decent parent would not.

The Amish around here only go till the 8th grade and are some of the most successful people in our neighborhood

Parents and their children are lining up for a chance at getting into Moscovitz's school. That right there shows you that the kids were probably going to do well in an academic environment (parental support). Perhaps the sample is not as random as they make it out to be.

It's easy parenting to put children in "a better school". A really better school can pick up some slack from there after those parents pat themselves on the back for their skills and vanity, whereas an ordinary school has a high likelihood of just producing shit out of capable children no matter how hard parents try. Hopefully these charter schools can somewhat stabilize the performance of intelligent kids and that it is bringing out better results in addition to the higher performing core of students they start with. Really impossible to study.

If you can separate the bad kids (kids from mostly bad homes) and put them in a separate school tailor toward their needs, regular kids can thrive. This why charter schools outperformed many public non-charter schools. We need allow more school choice through vouchers and give more choice to the parents. The current public school system is not helping anyone.

You make a good point. If a child is in a charter school it means the parents have made an effort. Nothing is more predictive of academic success than parental involvement.

As of lunch time on 1-24-18 it looks like 27 government school union members watched this video.

School shouldn't just be privatized it shouldn't even be forced. Fuck truancy laws.

"Children rise to the level of expectation." I see Ms. Moskowitz has learned well from Jaime Escalante.

When you go to school you are learning to be employable so you should learn at employable hours 8 hr days for high school.

Some do well because they get rid ofall of the special education children. Overall they don't do any better. And charter schools infamously go bankrupt any time, leaving families scrambling to find a school. They don't disclose many things, claiming they don't have to. Charter schools are bad for our country. If you want' to have a private school you can pay for it yourself.

Games and play are great for Kids and their learning.

The biggest problem with kids in public schools today is PARENTS! After living with a primary educator for 43 years, believe me, I know. Parents used to support the school and the teachers, now it's "how dare you say that about my little snowflake!". When I got my butt whupped at school, I got it double at home. Same with MY KIDS and they are all happy and successful.

TexasScout Noneofyourbusiness I never got my butt whupped at home, and definitely not at school. I am very happy and I think pretty successful. I cannot understand why you would hit a kid if you don’t have to. Doesn’t make any sense.

Are you suggesting that not being hit by parents is what makes people like that? What evidence is there for that? Me, my sister, my girlfriend all never were hit. My sister and I are anarcho-capitalists, and my girlfriend is conservative. I know plenty of people who were never hit and turned out great and don't have any desire to act out disruptively nor suppress dissenting views. Clearly it is possible to turn out well while not being hit. Good parenting does not need to include physical harm.

Ignoring charters are given special privilege like being paid regularly whereas in philly for example they get paid monthly, so half of all the money they have goes to debt. And charter schools can kick out under performing kids inflating passing records, smth public schools cant. The whole idea of charter schools and school choice is flawed, education is a credence good that wont be used by the person "shopping" around. If that kid gets a bad education the parent wouldnt know or that kid, and charters themselves take from the pot of money given to schools. Instead of "school choice" just allow the teachers to vote on the curriculum, pay them regularly, arm them to cut down on SROS and security funding and get rid of BOE's as they dont help individual teachers.

This clearly shows that kids can excel if they are install the right mindset from young

What happened to taking the best and the brightest and having them teach?

0:12 Well damn...

Charter schools can be awful if their aren't regulations in place.

They make great school in Africa...

Freedom: everyone has a different life, so they can do what they want. Fucking perfect!

I do agree that government and state run schools are not the best but they pay for teachers is much better then charter schools and the government still gives money to these schools so it's not totally government free. At the end of the day these schools cost more for the community their surving and the education level is about the same. I would like if government run schools would spend less on Sports and Art and just stick with education, if a kid wants to do what stuff then they or their parents should pay for it.

Schools must be made for profit hard,but tie the profit to grades,if kids do well on state tests and sats then more money of not less.

Do some research on parent involvement with charter students vs parent involvement with public school students. Not sure how it would work, it seems that when kids parents are more involved and take academics seriously that students do better. I wonder if children who attend charter schools parents are involved at a greater clip than public kids.

Since most them are poor it might be better to have them at school longer so they don’t get used by gangs and other thing in high crime areas

Did they not watch John Oliver's episode on this?
