Gaffes spell doom: Studentsâ sloppy letters aid charter schoolsâ approval
EFL and not part of the WOT but kindaâ funny.
All the proof state Board of Education member Roberta Schaefer needed to OK controversial new charter schools were the letters before her from public school students. Schaefer ridiculed the letters against a proposed school in Marlboro for their missing punctuation and sloppy spelling - including a misspelling of the word ``schoolââ in one missive. ``If I didnât think a charter school was necessary, these letters have convinced me the high school was not doing an adequate job in teaching English language arts,ââ Schaefer said. Despite the letter-writing campaign, which Schaefer said was orchestrated by school officials, the Marlboro-based Advanced Math and Science Academy Charter School as well as new charter schools in Cambridge, Lynn and Barnstable were approved yesterday.
