Charter Schools: Panacea or Problem?
Charter Schools: Panacea or Problem?

Larry is joined by a panel of community leaders for a conversation on the role of charter schools in the future of the Los Angeles Unified School District. Will this method insure innovation, creativity, and student achievement or is it a road to chaos with isolated and inconsistent schools with varied records of achievement? Larry talks with Myrna Castrejon of the California Charter Schools Association, A.J. Duffy of United Teachers of Los Angeles, Eric Premack of Cal State University, Sacramento, and Dr. Brian Stecher of the Rand Corporation. This discussion is produced in conjunction with Community Advocates.
