Miami New Times looks into the controversy around charter schools. In "Resegregation Now, Resegregation Forever," Rebecca Wakefield takes apart the pitch to "go charter" at Snapper Creek Elementary School in Dade County. "As [charter schools] have grown in popularity,
most of their grassroots elements have been replaced by a
new industry of national management companies, many
fueled by venture capital and marketing hype reminiscent of
the late-90s dot-com boom," she writes.
