Mathews’ fear is useless. Anti-charter groups depend on a dynamic frame-and-reframe; no matter what label you give a school, there will be an angle to criticize it. There’s no sense in dancing around potential criticism.

I continue to wonder why saying “paternalism” is such a big deal. He clearly doesn’t mean it in a derogatory way.

What is wrong with responsibility? Get back to some common sense values and what will happen to Student Performance? Let’s get some modesty back into the discussion of educational solutions. Invest more in cultivating a responsible learning culture and trust that it will create excellence.

I agree with Mathews’s worry that anti-charter groups will use the title “paternalistic” against No Excuses schools. Wouldn’t that just be a better term for them?
