You have GOT to see this. Betsy DeVos claims that the 40% failure rate of charter schools is only propaganda and false-when she is asked what the actual failure rate supposedly is then for charter schools she has no idea.
(God, I'm so embarrassed she's from Michigan)

She is a perfect storm of vileness. Erik Prince's sister & Dick DeVos's wife. Although I still have a bumper sticker from her hubby's failed gubernatorial bid against Jennifer Granholm in 2006: "Don't DICK with Michigan"
Don't you go forgettin' our very own Texan, Ricky Perry. You know, the intelligent one with the glasses! 
did for the SOTU - a kid was "awarded" a scholarship to "be free" and attend a school of her choice - while she was already attending "the school of her choice" - a charter school that had a 65 -1 application/admission ratio - yeah, she was one of the students "attending the school of her choice!"
She had attended a parochial school for the first 3 years of her schooling but the tuition became too much for the mother to handle. Because of that her mother enrolled her into the lottery for admission at the local charter school, which, by the way, is funded by the Philadelphia Public School System. She was admitted to that school and, as her mother said after the "award" from IQ45, "I don't view MaST as a school you want to get out of at all. I view it as a great opportunity."
Yeah - great TV - and more scam - just what we've come to expect from this mis-administration.
