Obama administration still pushing charter schools

– States like Kentucky that don’t have them could lose out on second tier stimulus money

ABC News reports the Obama administration isn’t backing off its often cited position that states which limit charter schools could lose out big time on the second round of second tier education stimulus money, often called the “Race to the Top” money.

With a pie of $4 billion to distribute, the feds have caught a lot of state government attention, and there definitely is an increased interest in Kentucky about these public school alternatives that give parents some real school choice options.
