Schools, where less than half of the kids that graduate. And those who graduate are nowhere near ready to go to college or go to work. We have seen across the state and across the country and in most states, Charter Schools public Charter Schools popping up. And giving parents hope, giving them a chance to get those kids out of failing schools. I said the other day in the rules committee, because it was so moving to me, i went to a Charter School in north minneapolis, 430 kids in that school, their parents are delighted with the education theyre getting now and thrilled to have gotten their kids out of failing schools and when i asked the principal and founder of the school if she could take more kids she said no, this is the right size for this school. They would like to replicate this school and thats what this bill allows and how successful is it . There are 1,000 kids 1,000 kids on the witnessing list to get into that Charter Schools because parents want to get out of failing schoo
