On WHYY’s Radio Times this morning, Donna Cooper of Public Citizens for Children and Youth and Mark Gleason of the Philadelphia School Partnership joined host Marty Moss-Coane to discuss the value and harm in expanding the number of charter schools in Philadelphia during a time of financial turmoil.
