Gone from Public to Charter school?

[aikahimomma]

thanks frossie for responding and damon for doing the quote thing ( i did not do my quote homework yet!)
i would like to add some positives about our public school experience so far..
for instance, Keaau Middle and High have a band program with a strong teacher...think
Mr. Holland's Opus local style...my daughter can now play some good flute..
and while she was at Keaau El she took chorus and was flown free to Oahu to sing with the symphony!!
she has a math teacher who uses fishing experiences that help the kids get the math concepts...her english teacher is just plain awesome...
just want to shed some positive light on the public schools here, as over the years i have noticed an increased paranoia and bashing that does not reflect our reality...

I was hoping some of those folks that were defending WOL/charter schools on that other thread would further enlighten those of us who are clueless to the differences of charter versus public...and Damon i don't buy the idea that there aren't people out there willing to comment based on how much input went into defending WOL recently.
