It’s because they’re charter schools. For profit education stops when the profit does for investors. Support public education

while CEO pedro martinez is a pos who needs to resign. This issue is actually with Acero charter schools who take money from public school and are more of a business than a school

Please take your kids out of charter schools. You did not need to have an education background or education degree to be a teacher at a charter school. Their model is more business like than anything.

But if acero didn’t know how to manage the money cps was giving them how is this cps fault. This is an issue but unfortunately it’s aceros issue because charters are business

This is not in the hands of CPS or CEO Martinez. CPS issues charters to operate a school, Acero Is the operator. While CPS can make recommendations, Acero’s board is not beholden to CPS.

this is the no child left behind, which made education into standardized testing which led schools with lower test scores to close and some reopened as privatized charter schools.

Charter schools are a business. Teachers & parents have no voice. That’s why ppl protested these schools, public tax $ but no rights or voice. Public schools are IMPORTANT.

Public schools ≠ charter schools
Charters:
• Different rules
• For-profit
• May neglect:
- English language learners
- Students with IEPs

Acero’s board approved these school closures due to a budget deficit. It is very sad for the children & families & I truly hope that CPS, CTU and Acero can come up with a reasonable plan.

I remember when they changed to Acero because members of the UNO organization were using public funds for their own personal benefit. I have no confidence in charter schools.

Once public schools are closed they are required to lease those building to any charter school that wants to for as little as $1. School choice vouchers can be used taking even more money from
