Interesting conversation between Gary Stager and Will Richardson which features Stager saying "I support universal charters - I think every school should be a charter." I think what Stager is missing is that charter schools are often not managed by parents and community, as he suggests, but by charter school conglomerates that manage charters as a business and minimize 'interference' by teachers and community. The reason the public school system exists in in order to ensure schools are managed by parents and community.
