[LM_NET] TARGET: Charter Schools USA

[Louise Leonard <louise.leonard@MJGDS.ORG>]

Dear Colleagues;

Charter Schools USA is opening a school here in Jacksonville, and people
keep asking me for my opinion.  I've checked out their website, but would
love to hear from anyone who has worked in one of their schools, or has a
child enrolled.  Basically, I'd like to know what most parents and teachers
ask:
are the kids learning?  how's the discipline?  how do they treat their
teachers?  What sort of teachers do they hire?

Thanks in advance for your help; I hate when people ask me things and I have
very little answer to offer them.
