41. No vested interest, just know very few will
First off, I think your confused about why I think that those schools will have less bullying. They are taking kids that all were bullied at their previous school. Kids that were bullied like that (think Ryan Patrick Halligan or Thomas White if you need a good comparison... though I am sure they public school system was great for both of them, thank God neither one of them was sent to a school for special needs kids) generally don't become bullies themselves. Even if say 5% of them become bullies, that means that quite a few of the bullied kids at their previous schools will never have to deal with bullies again. I am sure that means little to you, but that means a heck of a lot to me.

Beyond that I have metioned social skills training and bullying several times here, because thats what these private and charter schools you hate already offer. Thats something that will really help these kids that isn't offered in just about every public school. Beyond that like I said, having every teacher major in how to educate you at some point in time is also great.

And how many aspies/ADHD kids/ etc. have you ever educated... we are always difficult to teach :-p. I doubt they deny access to many kids when we are all so difficult to educate to begin with.
