Lottery

The thing that stuck me the most was the fact that the charter schools in the film were proven that they are able to teach students better than the zoned schools but the people agaisnt still wanted there kdis to go to schools where the succes rate was only a 20%. Also the part where she was defending the charter schools basically saying they deserve to be closed and not be fixed becasue they cant. Through the unions ways of dealing with it the change of it is very slow and time consuming.

  2. I thought that the parents still wanting their children to go to the worse schools were being foolish. I think they saw their pride and didn't put their children before themselves.

  3. Yeah I found that shocking to how people still sent their kids to the zoned school and didn't even try to apply to the charter schools.

  4. It also said that many of the children were reading below grade level at the schools they were attending now. I don't understand why their parents have an oppritunity that other people dream abiut, and they aren't taking it.
