    The Patrick Henry Charter School Board is made up of extremely talented and dedicated professionals, educators and parents. They are dedicated to serving EVERY SINGLE child regardless of income, race, creed, whatever. Anyone who judges this school as exclusionary has not read the charter or it’s mission statement, nor has he met the board members. What a wonderful opportunity for the Richmond Public School System to break out of the negative cycle they are in. It’s win-win all the way around.

    Given that 200 people were expected to come to the School Board meeting in support of the Patrick Henry Charter at 6pm, spineless RPS administrators decided yesterday to schedule the vote and/or discussion to 4:30pm today knowing that parents will be either at work or transporting children at this time.
