The for-profit charter school market is saturated. If you run out of children to felch from real public school districts, there's no more reason to buy up more property to convert into for-profit charter schools. It will be interesting to see how this affects the real estate market.

For-profit charter schools typically overcompensate their administration. Usually, that superintendent is also an owner of the management company that runs the franchise. The best thing to happen for those students is attend a real public school district.

This comes a day after Republicans flipped on an anti-trans 25 year statute of limitations.

Montana Dems, Zooey, Rep. Howell, they're all doing incredible work.

And this is the importance of representation and state legislatures.

WOW.

10+ Republicans just flipped in Montana and voted to kill a 25 year statute of limitations on trans care meant to end care, amended it down to 4 years.

This may not seem like a big deal, but it's huge. It's the most Republicans I've seen flip like this in recent memory.

Zooey's doing work.
