Charter group and teachers union will run New York City charter school
June 28, 2007
Green Dot Public Schools and the United Federation of Teachers will team up at South Bronx high school.
Green Dot Public Schools, the charter operation that has aggravated Los Angeles school administrators and union officials alike with its early successes and expansionist plans, has entered into what it hopes will be a less strident relationship in New York City. Green Dot founder Steve Barr and Randi Weingarten, president of the New York City teachers union, have reached an agreement to open a jointly run charter high school.
