“They are not giving up on their local public schools. They are passionately involved in fixing their local public schools. They are passionate about helping the kids out that are falling through the cracks right now. So there are a number of different ways that they are approaching it, but in no way has this become public versus charter versus other forms of education, versus home schoolers. This is really a national movement of people saying, I want to improve education and I want to make sure that we do not leave a single child behind, and there is a whole range of strategies that we need to embrace and take a look at for making sure that that is what happens.”
