Collectively they have increased enrollment by 13.7 percent from previous year. Most of the schools that have opened are at capacity or over.

This is the first year we've improved in every category. And it's not just one or two schools that are achieving high results. It's across the board.

What we do need to do though is look at what's working in public and chartered schools and start engaging different kinds of experts to integrate that policy into the public school system.

As soon as we realized what the extent of the problem was we reached out to schools and to the students affected.

Everything ages, and with other schools, their facilities and the things they can offer their students (are up to date). We need to have the most up-to-date offerings as well.

Oftentimes (schools) just don't teach those skills to kids; we just expect them to pick them up as they go along. And if they don't master those skills they can be behind in all areas.
