Yes I do think that Charter schools should replace Public school. There are many reasons that support my opinion. The first one is that all the public schools are becoming a disaster. Charter Schools know how to take care of there school and that’s why they get money and can keep there school looking nice. Of course public schools could be just as good as charter schools if they knew how to enforce policies at there schools. There are a lot of differences between a charter and public school. I think charter schools should replace public schools because if they are not going to change then maybe if they had no choice about there school a charter school will help them.
Public schools are becoming more and more a disaster. They used to just be “public schools”. Schools that didn’t have as much as Charter schools. Now they are even worse. The policies are the main reason I think. The administrators does not enforce or make strict enough rules for the students in which charter schools have many rules that are enforced and followed most of the time. Public schools give to many second chances when dealing with their students.
Charter schools way of learning is better than public schools. Their classroom sizes are way smaller than the average public school. They have more technology, and the public school is a little envious. So yes I do think that Charter schools should replace Public schools it is better for them.

What do you think Humanities is?
What I think humanities is a Language arts and Social Studies class mixed together. I think it deals with the world, and I think it’s about lititure. We will learn about different writing techniques and forms of stories in the language arts part. In the Social studies part I think it is basically about the world, different places around the world. It also teaches us about different cultures in those different places. Humanities I s just a fancy word for two subjects that are put together. I think it is a very important class to have in school all grades.
