DC charter schools can have a tough time finding space. Meanwhile, many DCPS schools are empty or underutilized, but perhaps an independent authority could arbitrate to get to the best outcome for the city.

This will be true once "the city" recognizes that 41% of its public school students are in schools with inadequately funded facilities. Mayor Fenty always treated charter schools like they were part of the suburbs or something. Despite his talk, Mayor Gray is doing essentially the same thing. As a charter parent, I don't trust him to set up an independent authority and I haven't seen evidence to trust the Deputy Mayor either.
