Charters and Privatization – A Horace Mann League Podcast

NPE’s Executive Director Carol Burris and Professor of Education and National Education Policy Center (NEPC ) Director Kevin Welner were guests on the Charters and Privatization podcast hosted by The Horace Mann League. Listen in as Burris and Welner talk about the current status of the movement to destroy public education and replace it with a market-based privatized system. 

“It is foolish to think we should turn the education of our nation’s children into a Black Friday sale at Walmart—where the doors open and parents run in to get the best deal for their kids,” says NPE’s Burris. Listen in and find out what is on Burris’ and Welner’s minds on this important topic.
