https://www.propublica.org/article/failing-charter-schools-have-a-reincarnation-plan
This article describes a school failing as a charter and morphing into a private school. The school uses government funded vouchers to convince community members to switch to their school, as well as student scholarships. They state the money for the scholarships is donated from corporations to nonprofits who then redistribute it to schools creating a shell game effect. Who are these corporations? Are they gaining tax breaks from this system? Also, is the school just using the perks of the vouchers to cover up their past failures?
