Charter on Charter Schools

Teachers rallied at the state house yesterday against the Charter School Bill.
Con--It will affect school room size and disproportion ratios and funding
Pro--It will give families the right to choose schools so that their child gets the best education

As in all cases: There are two sides and the truth is in the middle.

Yes people have the right to choose.
Who is going to build the schools and who will fund them? Are school districts going to fund Charter Schools, and where is the money coming from? Are they robbing Peter to pay Paul?
Is the tax money from family A who goes to a Charter School going to be funneled there thus the sum will be subtracted from School B?

Why is this issue on a Real Estate Blog?
Because schools matter. They affect property value.
