Pennsylvania Superintendents Urge State Legislature To Drop Charter Bill

The Delaware County (PA) Daily Times (10/18, Puglionesi) reports that a group of fifteen district superintendents in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, have written to the state legislature "requesting changes to proposed charter school legislation in Senate Bill 1115, under consideration by Pennsylvania legislators this week. ... The letter of Oct. 12 states that as proposed, SB115 'reinforces a blatant disregard for the equitable treatment of constituent school districts.' A bullet-point list of grievances primarily concern local control and representation, transparency and funding issues the legislation potentially creates."
