Pennsylvania's largest charter school doesn't share any information about its finances. Yes, it is a nonprofit but all of its management is conducted by an "arms length" for-profit organization, Charter School Management.
The Philadelphia Inquirer filed a suit to learn the finances of the school and used a new state agency under the Right-to-Know Law to do so. The new agency ruled in favor of the Inquirer. Of course, more appeals are to come but this is a victory just the same. And I must ask anyway, why does a nonprofit, heavily subsidized by public money (it is a public school), need so much privacy to begin with? Secrecy is often an indicator that something's not right.
