Parent Testimonial:
Yesterday, I was reading an online article about my son’s charter school. A commenter with an annoying tone was claiming an undisclosed affiliation and was suggesting the readers google “Gulen charter schools”.
Although finding out facts is something far beyond a Google search, I took that advice, and I think I have to give some credit to him/her. Long story short, I got to know, Mr. Gulen who was largely described as an inspiration source for many education and dialogue centers as well as humanitarian aid organizations worldwide.
To me, “Gulen charter schools” looked like a catchy phrase at first, as a lot of mumbo-jumbo was present on the Web without sufficient research, let alone evidence. Plus, there was a great deal of inconsistency.
The bottom line is that the commenter introduced me an intellectual, but contradictions in the links he/she provided disproved his/her points on Gulen charter schools claims. It is very straightforward: Could there possibly be a slightest chance that our governing bodies are not aware of what he/she found out? Are his/her sources any better than the federal government or local agencies?
MSA, just like any other charter school, is not just overseen by authorities but works closely with them for the community. I know the teachers and the principle of my son; they deserve credit, and I do recommend this charter school to any parent who wants to see their children succeed.
