Public Vs. Charter School: Which Is The Best Option For Our Children?

The school choice battle rages on — public school proponents believe their way of implementing education is the best way, while proponents of charter schools believe their way of instructing our youth is better.

On Wednesday’s NewsOne Now, Roland Martin, Angela Rye, Principal of IMPACT Strategies, Keith Campbell, Founding Board Member of the Black Alliance for Educational Options, GOP Political and Communications Strategist Paris Dennard, and Bob Woodson, President and Founder of the Center for Neighborhood Enterprise discussed school choice and how to cut through all of the jargon and rhetoric to get to what really matters — educating our children to make sure they have the best possible outcomes.
