This is great- but banks do not cooperate.
To open a savings account most ask for a minimum balance, or no free checking. Someone with no job or who owes a bank, or spotty credit, will not be able to to this.

I think the school should close. I know several substitute teachers who went for one day and will never return.
According to these experienced teachers, there is no management of the children, no authority, It is 95% behavior management and 5% instruction- according to a TEACHER in the school.
Schenectady may be bad enough- but the children will have instruction and learn Close it- Charter schools are created by parents who have children that are on the verge of suspension or expulsion.
