Recent string of charter school studies is interesting – the notion that charters are not monolithic could be the point standing in contrast to the reality that nearly all government-owned schools in Colorado (maybe America) are becoming monolithic if they aren’t there already. Capitalism and markets applied to public schools seems to correspond – albeit generally – to higher quality. Other than Milton Friedman, who’d have guessed?
