    Seems like good use of an unused property.

    I am always amazed over the fact that the Catholic philanthropy in Milwaukee will hand over tens of millions of dollars to fund Catholic schools while Cardinal Stritch, a Catholic affricated college that educated many of the teachers in the community, was left to go bankrupt. While Alverno struggles to keep its doors open with the creative programs especially fop women and minorities, the local Catholic philanthropy dries up. Much of sectarian philanthropy is directed by wealthy conservatives to schools that promote their conservative values and not the core teachings of Jesus Christ. When a choice schools states that it is “nondenominational, it is a sure sign that core religious ethics are not being taught.

    “Choice schools are for the most part, one huge scam.

    Once they have to be inspected and adhere to standards then and only then can they be considered legitimate.

    Many allow unlicensed and uneducated people to be teachers.

    By uneducated I mean folks who do not have a major subject nor have they gone thru student teaching to at least get some feedback on how they might be effective.

    Teaching is not a walk in the park. It is rewarding and often difficult.
