Morgan Hill Unified School district recently issued a staff report recommending the denial of Rocketship’s charter school petition.

Rocketship’s petition at one point claims that grass-roots community efforts would help close Morgan Hill’s achievement gap in Nashville, Tennessee!  Rocketship is not interested in serving local interest, as this copy & paste gaffe illustrates.  In another section, Rocketship’s application requires the school Principal to have a “passion for urban children”, in the rural/suburban Morgan Hill area.

Morgan Hill Unified outlines the core issues with Rocketship, including high teacher to student ratios, tiny property for such a large number of students, questionable education practices, and issues with teacher credentialling.
