Being a charter doesn’t make school good or bad

Cepeda writes about the ongoing debate about the troubles with charter schools in Chicago in comparison to the public schools in CPS. She describes how it is hard to make a valid decision as to if the charter schools are actually failing students becasue it is not possible, at this time, to compare success rates completely because of a numerous amount of factors. These factors include, neighborhoods that feed into the school and are not in the schools control. Cepeda wants to show to her readers that charter schools arent going anywhere and that there needs to be in a reform in thinking about these "failing" schools before there can be a reform in the actual schools.
