Yesterday I wrote about the decision to approve a Gulen charter school in rural Washington County by the Alabama Charter School Commission, despite the fact that the state paid the National Association of Charter School Authorizers to review the proposal and they turned it down. There is little or no demand in the county, which has good public schools, for a charter. The CEO of the charter plans to pay himself $300,000 a year to run a school for 240 students, plus a commission on other sources of income.
The good news is that Mark Hall will bring his film “Killing Ed” about the Gulen schools to Washington County, Alabama, on April 29 for a screening.
At least the public will find out what is coming their way.
You should see it too.

Here lies Ed U. Cation
Died from Common Core
Teacher devaluation
Charters, tests and more
and the only funeral attendee: MISS Ed. U. Cation…
YAY!

Where will it be shown at. I would like to see this
It will be shown in Washington County. Check with the mayor’s office or call the school board.
Without a plan of action it’s pointless to show a film, they have to have a strategy and elected officials willing to stand up for the people of Alabama. Additionally the public schools people must attend and stand with the people. Soner is also opening a school in the Fall called LEAD Academy with crazy lady Charlotte Meadows who is NOW running for State Senate of Alabama #74 if she wins I don’t think I have to tell you that charter schools will flood the states and rob her blind. The film screening should be followed with a meeting the following day with leaders from the community that can actually do something http://www.wsfa.com/2019/04/05/charlotte-meadows-announces-run-district-house-seat/?fbclid=IwAR3ZtyKO2Hm4u9urRiB0WDayaTtRhriGr3zkxRHsA5WH_JZt–Dk40drL2g
Take the lead, Sarah!
