Some reasons why charter schools flourish is the awareness of inner city urban parents that something is wrong with the public schools their children attend. Ironically, charter schools are more segregated and some have subtle admission policies that favor a certain group of students over others. And their disciplinary and suspension policies are not under New York State Education law but federal, requiring some due process. That's is why there is the revolving door syndrome of students admitted to charters discipline suspended readmitted back to the public schools.
