No, that's also misinformation. Public charter schools in most states aren't allowed to screen prospective students up front. Any parents can enroll their children, and when a charter school is oversubscribed they use admission lotteries. And they follow the same disciplinary procedures as other public schools.

- reliabilityguy 1y agoI’ve read the NYT piece, and I am not sure how it disproves the statement made earlier. I expected it to be an example of how the school changes their rules to target a student, but it was just a case of school that is very strict.
