For decades, education activists fought for billions of dollars that were owed to underfunded NY public schools, known as Foundation Aid.
In the 2 years since we won the funding in 2021, charter schools have leeched off the majority of that money for themselves.

“Charter schools steal money from public schools… and no, they do not outperform public schools and how do I know this? Because rich white communities don’t want them…” - Sen. @JabariBrisport
#NoNewCharters #DontRaiseTheCap
“We know charters don’t outperform public schools bc if they did, rich white communities would want them too!” - thank you senator brisport for telling the truth about the billionaires trying to privatize public education! #DontRaiseTheCap #NoNewCharters
As a former public school teacher, Senator Brisport shares: charter schools steal money from public schools! #DontRaiseTheCap #NoNewCharters
“[Charter Schools] are kinda like being in a new relationship with a narcissist.”
Facts, sis!👏🏾

Education is a public good and every child deserves the best education possible, says Senator John Liu. #DontRaiseTheCap #NoNewCharters
Rita Joseph, NYC Ed Chair says “a well funded public education system is nothing good for our economy.” We agree!! #NoNewCharters #PublicDollars4PublicSchools
Get yourself a campaign manager who can lead an entire coalition, AND make rally signs.
Day 2 of #TaxTheRichTakeover is here, and we’re rallying for #NoNewCharters, #ClimateJobsJustice, and #CoverageForAll
Aspira Atty, who admitted in 2016 to the SRC that Aspira was (illegally) funneling $$ from their Ren charters to their other charters, is now present. #PhlEd #NoNewCharters
ECS rep has no curriculum development experience, but she did look at the Common Core model. That is what ECS has submitted to the Board in their application--basically a book report on curriculum #PhlEd #NoNewCharters
@PHLschoolboard The Board will hear no public testimony today. Charter applicants will have hours to sell their product. Data from the past 20 years shows without a doubt that charters cannot outperform public schools. #NONewCharters @APPSphilly @Philly_RJ
"Aspira has been doing this for 48 years"--Aspira rep. No bc charters haven't been around for 48 years. Aspira's graduation and attendance rates far below that of District schools. That's readily available data #PhlEd #NoNewCharters
Hard to believe this much time and $$ being spent on hearing for a charter which is not just unnecessary but would be harmful to the existing public schools in Logan, West Oak Lane, Hunting Park #PhlEd #NoNewCharters /2
The Jounce guy--who obviously is not 'formally affiliated" with Empowerment--keeps clarifying answers about the Empowerment application #NoNewCharters
Children who come to kindergarten know their names--and their addresses. Just saying #NoNewCharters
Pride founder Johnson just said that they are not targeting any zip codes for enrollment. Actually her application says the opposite: they are recruiting from 19119, 19126, 19141, 19144, and 19150. Again, why can't applicant answer correctly or truthfully? #PhlEd #NoNewCharters
These hearings are very professional and cordial and every advantage is given to the charter applicant. But we resent the use of time and taxpayer $$ to spend all day reviewing an application that should have hit the trashcan after the first read #NoNewCharters #PhlEd
Here we go again with the "I believe" answers and punting to others when they don't know what their own application says #NoNewCharters #PhlEd
