Vice President Joe Biden said he wants body cameras for police so they can record everything. I don’t mind this idea at all. It would avoid any questions that may arise during a confrontation, like Ferguson. We need more transparency in another big area in Delaware as well: charter school board meetings!
Last year, State Rep Deb Hudson sponsored House Bill 23, and nothing came of it. It sat there, waiting for Delaware Speaker of the House Pete Schwartzkopf to release it and put it on the ready list. The Speaker did nothing with it. The bill would have to be written again and go through the whole process all over again, but it would be worth it. I’m sure many parents from charter schools like Academy of Dover, Providence Creek, Moyer, Family Foundations Academy and Academia Antonia Alonso wish they knew what was said at different times in the past year. This would be the best time for a legislator to introduce this type of legislation!
Which legislator would do it? Will Hudson pick up the baton again or should it be handed off to someone else? Someone with more influence on Schwartzkopf preferably. I know Kilroy would have a parade if this passed! Publius would have a heart attack! About 6-7 public school districts do this already in the state, along with the Delaware State Board of Education. Our children deserve more than board minutes that don’t give much information. We want and need more!
