Well, it looks like the magic is coming off the "Charter School Brave New World" Imagine is part of a national chain that supporters think is an answer from God...they must have pixie dust that makes children learn! magine Charter School in St. Petersburg agreed to close its elementary school after years of poor academic performance. Two separate superintendents had pushed the School Board to close Imagine, saying it was performing worse than any other school in Pinellas County.

That argument was true last year, when Imagine had the worst FCAT scores of any public school. But charter officials, who originally fought the attempt to close Imagine, argued that their students were improving. They said if Imagine closed many of their students would be zoned for similarly struggling neighborhood schools.

This news will not reach Jeb Bush and his pals as they don't read bad news about Charter Schools.
