Davis and Hart Sell Out Charter Schools
Submitted by Lance T. Izumi, J.D. on 7.20.1999
When recently asked about charter schools, Gov. Gray Davis replied: "I want to make sure that charter schools have every opportunity to succeed. . . . Free them from all the bureaucratic rules and regulations, and see if they can produce what counts--which are higher test scores." Despite his supportive rhetoric, however, Davis is pushing Senate Bill SB434, a measure that would not only tie up charter schools with new red tape, but would actually close down many charters.
