Charter autonomy should be autonomy from institutional constraints of DCPS, not autonomy from the educational challenges kids present to DCPS schools.
This is the best, most concise way I've heard someone put this, and it's exactly right. If charters are simply able to avoid the effects of poverty in the city, then we haven't done anything to actually improve education as a whole. Of course the charters already have means at their disposal to get rid of troublesome students that the school system as a whole doesn't.
