Education
Sean P. Brennan
Real waste, fraud and abuse is able to occur where there isn’t sufficient accountability and oversight. Public schools operate under extensive financial, public-records, auditing and governmental oversight requirements. Charter schools that receive taxpayer dollars should not be able to operate in the shadows or face a lower standard of accountability.
