Memo from schools CEO adds fuel to Imagine fire The largest operator of charter schools in St. Louis has faced long-standing concerns that it crafts school boards to be puppets for its own corporation.For years, it has hand-picked those who should be charged with the company's oversight. And in multiple states, regulators objected as the company sought to place employees on its school boards. Now, the Post-Dispatch has obtained a memo in which the chief of Virginia-based Imagine Schools lays out a nationwide blueprint for controlling school boards and limiting their authority.
