OK. Let me get this straight: This is a school that is public. A public school that takes all-comers provides a lower quality education, takes more tax dollars to support. A Charter School will alleviate a portion of that burden - and I'm surprised that it's in the charter that special education students are not allowed. MVRCS in my community has a comprehensive special education programme, as do most other charters. But...OK. So this one says that all students currently in the public school with special needs will remain in the public school they're in as they're ineligible. So, the public school district isn't gaining special needs students. It's simply not losing any to the charter school. This school doesn't presently exist. And charter schools, BTW, get separate funding from the state and also are allowed to maintain their own funds for operations, funds not taken from the public school district at large. The MVRCS has a rather large real-estate portfolio and a few million dollars at its disposal as a result of wise investment. Therefore, the tax payers in the communities that support the school don't have to divert funds from the public district budget...but then again, parents don't have to worry about paying tuition for a quality education.

Your argument is ridiculous in the face of the reality of charter schools.
