Synopsis

This episode will discuss the pros and cons of Georgia's first prison charter school and the aftermath of the Atlanta Public School cheating scandal.  We will discuss the role of public schools and how charter schools may balance the scales of giving people a fair chance in education. We will discuss why investing in Americans in public school is better than waiting until after they are incarcerated.  We will discuss why reform that places an emphasis on investing in inmates versus prevention and intervention is a failed cause.
