New State Commission Pushes Charters on Nashville
Gov. Bill Lee won approval of a “ super charter commission “ back in 2019. Now, that commission is imposing an unwanted charter school on Nashville.
The Commission voted today to overturn the decision by the MNPS School Board to reject the charter application from Nashville Classical, which already operates an elementary and middle school in East Nashville. The new school is proposed for West Nashville.
Nate Rau has a great explainer on the fight over Nashville Classical in the Tennessee Lookout.
