    we are from a very small town north of you. could you please tell us the pro's and con's of starting your charter school. How and why as a small community did you begin. So many small towns are having a hard time keeping their school doors open,and keeping good teachers and cutting those that are not living up to what a small community expects from them.
    Thank you,
    Kris
