Dr. Brenda Dickhoner, PhD is president of Ready Colorado, a conservative education advocacy organization. We're going to discuss an interesting (and perhaps unfortunate) argument between several of my friends about the funding of a certain subset of charter schools as Douglas County's school board (conservatives and liberals alike) support a Mill Levy Override (effectively, in this case, a fixed amount -- not rate change -- property tax hike to increase school funding)
Two articles on Brenda's side, then one on the School Board's side, in this battle between conservatives:
