A poem for charter school advocates, adapted from the famous words of Pastor Martin Niemöller:

First they came for the virtual charters, and I did not speak out—

Because I don’t run a virtual charter.

 

Then they came for the single campus schools, and I did not speak out—

Because I run a charter network.

 

Then they came for the EMOs, and I did not speak out—

Because I run a nonprofit network of charter schools.

 

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
