Prof. Orfield Quoted in The Republic on Charter Schools
Professor Myron Orfield was quoted in an article in Columbus, Indiana's The Republic entitled "Charter School Leaders to Meet in Minn. as Study Shows Fast-Growing Movement has Mixed Results." The article quoted Orfield saying, "Charters have promised something better to kids that are desperate and their families that are desperate and they've given them something worse. They've tricked them. And they've tricked us. And it's a tragedy."
