Ho Hum...

Same old story: http://www.sacbee.com/101/story/72151.html

(Step 1) Regulating agency requests information.

(Step 2) VAPAC fails to comply.

(Step 3) Regulating agency gets angry.

(Step 4)VAPAC swears they have done what was required.

(Step 5) Agency grants VAPAC more time to gather information.

(Step 6) Go back to step 1.

It's hard to maintain any faith in the charter school movement if what we have witnessed in the past few years qualifies as oversight.

How many chances should a school get? The county yanked Sacramento Polytechnical's charter after a matter of months for unauthorized revisions to its charter; the SCUSD egregiously allows VAPAC to operate, under the administration of one of its employees, after countless number of changes, charges, and sound accusations as to the quality of learning and administration of the school.

Yikes...
