Bumping, because parents were asking questions about it in another thread.
By the way, DCI = DC International school, an language-focused International Baccalaureate (IB) middle and high school (sure hope I spelled Bacca___ correctly LOL!) |
| whoops: it is the 5th, not the 6th!! |
| How was it? Couldn't make it myself. |
| Lovely. They had students there too. Seems to be having a great start. |
| Any summary? Interested! Thanks. |
Was there any discussion/update on the location? Status of Walter Reed space? |
Curious about this, too. |
| What are the alternatives if Walter Reed doesn't materialize? |
| How is the 100% paperless policy working out? That seems like a lot of screen-time for kids. I also heard kids get to play video games on laptops or personal devices during breaks and even sometimes in class. Curious to hear current parents take on their tech focus. |
If this is true it bumps DCI further down my list. |
|
Really? I didn't know about the 100% paperless policy. We are at a feeder school. I really don't like the idea of DC spending so much time in front of a screen. Any DCI parents who could describe how the classes work? Might need to reconsider DCI....
|
| I would not like paperless. |
| First I've heard of it. When is the next DCI Info session? Definitely hope someone asks this. (I can never make it to wherever it is by 6:00 from work). |

It is on their webpage:
Technology at DCI meets our environmental (paperless education), social justice (access for all), and academic (students will be able to progress at higher levels through the curriculum) goals. http://dcinternationalschool.org/student-life/what-to-expect/ Gross! Also at a feeder and not psyched about this. |
