PCCS Constituent Response To SRC Charter School Policy

I am concerned that the current SRC policy is leading to district management of charter schools. Charter Schools were started to be independent schools authorized by the school district, not managed by it. The current policy is allowing the school district to increasingly interfere with community based, community oriented charter public schools.
