Description
This episode I speak with Charlie Friedman, founder and Head of School of Nashville Classical Charter School. Charlie tells us how his experience with schools as a child and as a young teacher drove him to come up with a better way. That better way is his highly successful charter school in East Nashville, TN. What's even more impressive is which demographic across the country is benefitting the most from charter schools success. But it gets complicated. Housing heavily impacts not only where a child may go to school but also have a direct impact on performance. And as housing prices increase in some areas the unintended result can be segregation. Are charter schools a social justice issue or a conservative ideology? We discuss this question, school segregation, housing and get into the details of what makes up a charter school.
