It may be getting even harder to get a spot at a charter

NP as well, but PP previously doesn't get it. People will do what it takes to get into HRCS (DCUMers should know what I'm talking about), so if a couple of SAH moms or dads with PhD or professional degrees would happily take 40-hour week admin jobs at $20k to get into the school. Multiply this several times over and you'll see the problem.

I say let teachers (and teachers only) have this benefit. At least they have to earn their qualifications. Even better that the law would require them to be DC residents.

Oh, please. It's not as though the typical charter has dozens of "admin" job openings coming out of its ears each year. And even so, there's no guarantee those who want it just to get their kids in would be the ones to get the job anyways, so you're right back to the lottery crapshoot anyways one way or another you would be rolling the dice.
