That is the narrative that a white racist billionaire who has never had a real job in her life wants you to believe. Charter schools do not benefit mostly underprivileged kids. More often than not they work to their detriment.
Speaking of debates. I'd pay money to watch Trump, Biden and Kanye debate. What would be the over/under on any one of them being able to hold a single train of thought? 20 seconds? 30 seconds?

There is a Stanford study about LA charter schools serving mainly minority students. They found educational outcomes were superior to the local public schools in the area.
I for one am all for giving parents and kids the chance/choice of getting out of unaccountable failing government run schools.
Do we want to help people succeed? It starts with a good education.

you should probably ask the student and parents of charter schools. ask them if they would rather go back to the regular public school they are zoned in.

I expect biden to avoid any debate. I'm sure something will happen to stop it. His speaking is too much of a liability.

From the Stanford Study.
"Our findings show urban charter schools in the aggregate provide significantly higher levels of annual growth in both math and reading compared to their TPS peers. "
TPS means traditional public schools eotl.
"These results translate to urban charter students receiving the equivalent of roughly 40 days of additional learning per year in math and 28 additional days of learning per year in reading."
Our local small public school district just went online learning only. Our neighbors had been hoping at least to get 2 days live, and were trying to move mountains for it (despite being LA County they were hopeful they could sneak in since Ventura education held jurisdicion by some quirk). No soap. These guys were prepared and rolled out online learning on day 1 in the shutdown. If they can't do it, I fear for even the private schools (my little Utah sojourn might be a whole lot longer than I'm thinking). They are optimistic about things changing if numbers go down, but warned parents its unlikely to happen even if things calm down due to equity reasons and an inability to turn things on a dime without extensive planning.
This is exactly what will happen: The Dem's will demand a fact checker as a condition to debate, Trump will say no...Biden will say that Trump just plans on lying and so Biden won't debate. Isn't your opponent on the debate stage suppose to be your fact checker.
Hope I'm wrong, our country deserves to hear what each of them will claim their policies will be.
That was oddly entertaining but why are they picking on the white chicken?
Racial Isolation of Charter School Students Exacerbating Resegregation | NEA
Charter schools are among the most segregated in the nation. Experts say the justifications offered by many charter leaders are troubling and undermine the promise of equal opportunity for every student.

There is no point to a debate. Americans know more than enough.
Ok, how about for purely entertainment or drinking game purposes? I shouldn't be making light of our presidential candidates, but if I don't laugh, I might cry.
That's weird that a teachers' union publication would come out against charter schools, huh.Racial Isolation of Charter School Students Exacerbating Resegregation | NEA

I enjoy debates let's go.
Need Kanye for the entertainment value otherwise I'm out. Don't need to see this:

Yet here you are commenting again on page 5 - strange how that works.
