Actually, I Just Heard a Story Today About Blackstone Valley Prep Theatening to Do This to a BVP Parent in Lincoln

Gary Rubenstein:

But that’s not the big story I heard. This story, if true, is truly sickening. What I heard is that the charter school was explaining the schools expectations to parents who were not very educated themselves and didn’t really have their act together. They lived several miles from the school (another problem with choice) and the charter told the parent that if the student was late for school more than some number of times, the charter would call Child Protective Services and report the family. Of course this means that there could be the risk that the kids are taken into foster care.

This sort of thing is difficult to confirm, of course.
