Craft a well written and well thought out response to the following scenario:

The superintendent of the Shady Tree School District is concerned with an application filed with the State’s Department of Education to open a charter school in the district. The opening of a charter school will decrease the state funding to the district, so views on charter schools from the community are mixed. The charter school being proposed will require all students to take Hebrew to fulfill their state’s mandated world language requirement. The founder of the charter school shared with the media the school is not faith based, religion will not be taught and the classroom structure will be segregated based upon gender to ensure less distractions. The community and media are giving much attention to this charter school application because it’s funding will come from public funds.

As a member of the community, please create a letter to the newspaper editor responding to the situation. Your letter may support or oppose the opening of this charter school. Please use citations to support your reasoning and facts shared.
