Four New Charter Schools for MO

Announced last week, the US Department of Education approved four new charter schools—three in St. Louis and one in Kansas City—to open next fall. This is certainly a promising step in the right direction.

Though many talk of school reforms, it is extremely encouraging to see individuals taking an active interest in improving our children’s education. The charter schools will offer families a much-needed alternative to inadequate public and expensive private schools. Therefore, an enormous amount of appreciation goes out to those crusading for the necessary changes in the education system of our state—specifically by way of school choice provided by charter schools.

These four schools will undoubtedly bring hope to these communities of a brighter future for more children.
