The community opposition grows against the SLPS deed restrication.
The American Association of Architects (St. Louis Chapter) and the Landmarks Association of St. Louis have joined the fight for our children's education.
Basically, charter schools are currently banned from acquiring any of closing or already empty school properties in the St. Louis School District. Our children or the community were clearly not considered in this ridiculous policy by the Special Administrative Board. Why wouldn't school buildings be allowed to be schools?! No one, including the appointed administration, has an answer.
But for answers to your questions on the issue check out the Children's Education Alliance of Missouri (CEAM) video.

CEAM Conference: United for Missouri Kids and Communities
Many leaders from across the state united yesterday for the Children's Education Allence of Missouri's (CEAM) yearly conference to discuss bringing education to our children and hope to our communities.
It is very encouraging to see such a diverse mix--including everyone from Lt. Governor Peter Kinder to groups such as BAEO--coming together to fight--in the both the public and political fields--for education reform.
Supporting charter schools was a main topic. With an increasing number of public school closures all with deed restriction clauses in effect, it is obvious that this school choice NEEDS this support.
