Reporter forms a private school in Arkansas for $45
Original: "In Arkansas, all it took was a few clicks on the Arkansas secretary of state website, $45 and an American flag to form
A journalist with the Arkansas Times created a bona fide private school in Arkansas using only an online form on the secretary of state's website, a $45 fee and an American flag, according to reporting by ProPublica, Arkansas Times, Mountain State Spotlight and The Assembly. The stunt highlights how little oversight exists over private school formation, raising questions about accountability in states expanding school choice programs.
Why now: It exposes how easily a private school can be legally created, fuelling debate over school choice oversight.
