Ivy Prep sent me a response to a column about why the state Charter Schools Commission should not allow the charter network to close its high schools, which serve 90 students, at the end of this month.

The closing process has already begun, although the official vote of the Charter Schools Commission will come later this month.  The commission is expected to sanction the decision of the Ivy Prep board to shutter its high schools.
