Charter Schools definitely not out of the question

– Kentucky’s commissioner of education says so

Over at Kentucky Commissioner of Education Terry Holliday’s blog, his January 22, 2010 comments are about charter schools and what they could offer Kentucky.

He urges Kentucky’s teachers to keep an open mind about charters, pointing out that the key question should be about how charters can “help students learn at higher levels and enable teachers to meet the needs of more students.”

He also says that we “need to focus on the children’s needs and not let the adult needs get in the way of our focus.”

Well said, Mr. Commissioner.
