The charter schools in my area literally suck and have much lower test scores than our public schools, but I will support the bill. I don't see any reason to withhold schools from starting up that can really change a community. And parents usually don't want to send their kids to a worse school, so any bad charter schools will die out anyway (the one I live next to is good with social problems/ disabilities so you have a lot of families coming from far away) but I'm not sure how the other charter schools in my area survive. There's also a christian private school with sub par test scores, though that is faith based.
