As a result, bringing the CHOICE of charter public schools to WA will require the passage of new legislation authorizing charter schools, either by the Legislature or, through the initiative process, by the People.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02561839437385151612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762201600804179432.post-88320952999179962132011-02-02T12:38:46.868-08:002011-02-02T12:38:46.868-08:00Can you start a charter school?
