Oh great. Developers starting to cash in on relaxed charter school limits

This can lead to no good end. We pay taxes for public schools and developers take that money and open charter schools in their exclusive projects. Developers should not profit from public school funding. This is surely another sign of end times for public education in this country...

A Harnett County developer has gotten state approval to open a charter school this fall, just outside the entrance to his gated golf community.

David Levinson, developer of the Anderson Creek Club, had planned to build the school inside the community’s gate until state education officials raised concerns about public access. But even outside the gate, Anderson Creek Club Charter School could become a model for other developers who want a piece of North Carolina’s expanding charter-school market....

... “Charter schools need to be diverse,” said Christopher Hill, director of the education and law project for the N.C. Justice Center. “That’s not something you assume from a gated community. The thought of having a charter school in a development just feels a little icky.”
