Two sides to the charter school debate
We asked two Rancho Palos Verdes community members who have been outspoken on the TIP Academy proposal to explain their points of view in a pro/con format.
Read on to the following posts for the "con" from Paula Stapleton, a mother of students attending Mira Catalina Elementary School and Miraleste Intermediate School, who has been fighting the project. She's also a counselor at Palos Verdes High.
The "pro" is from Michael Schwerdtfeger, a father of three children attending Mira Catalina Elementary School, who is one of the main organizers of the school.
