Geee Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Daily Caller The Department of Education is proposing new rules that will give teachers unions more power and control while making it harder for charter schools to qualify for and receive federal grants, experts told the Daily Caller News Foundation. The rules to qualify for a grant place limits on “a small, but sometimes critical piece of the funding strategy of many new schools,” Ray Domanico, the Manhattan Institute’s director of education policy, told the DCNF. “The toughest period for new charters is at start-up, and a modest federal grant is an important piece of support in that phase of development.” “The [Biden] Administration gave away the game by requesting that charter schools provide evidence of ‘over-enrollment of existing public schools,'” Corey DeAngelis, a school choice advocate and national director of research at the American Federation for Children, told the DCNF. “They’re focused on protecting failing government schools as opposed to doing what’s best for families.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
