Do you really think if the state takes control away from local school boards to establish charter schools as the upcoming constitutional amendment proposes, they will do it better? If so, you are smoking rope. Once our legislators get control of the process, there is no guarantee that they will do what they say.As evidence, look at how the legislature has gone back on its word regarding special fees that were to be collected and spent for such things as environmental cleanup, drivers’ education and other purposes.By the end of this year, programs for tire and hazardous waste cleanup will have collected almost $200 million in fees since 2004.
