Then SABIS®, a private, for-profit education provider, took over. Twenty years later, the school is a six-time silver medalist in U.S. News \u0026amp; World Report's annual \"America's Best High Schools\" listing, and every single graduate of the school has been offered a college place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith success of this magnitude, you would think that for-profit managed charter schools like SABIS would be in high demand. On the contrary, they are fought at every turn. Why is the idea of employing for-profit companies to help rescue failing public schools treated with fear and hostility?
