Stop Charter Schools in Mississippi

This petition is to speak out and let our state officials know that we do not want Charter schools here in our state, but we want them to come up with more ways to help fund our public schools which are here now and serving our communities. I have two children in a district which has been taken over by the state. Although my children are honor roll students and could be accepted into one of these charter schools if one where to be opened in this area, that would not help the rest of our students who wouldn't be able to attend these schools. So where would that leave us as a whole community? Divided with no over all solution to a bigger problem.
