[quote=Anonymous]I have an honest question for parents either with kids in DC charter schools or those looking to send their kids to charters who may have some information to share.

The PARCC scores would suggest that half or more children attending many of these schools aren't boding so well in basic literacy and math... and yet these schools still seem to be coveted. I'm a DC parent and looking for the best option for my kids and upon hearing good things about some of the charters I did my research. The places that some parents were touting as top choices (see below) had some not so stellar scores and I'm just wondering why people still consider them to be good? Is it the "scores aren't everything" argument? Or is it just better than the other public alternative in their neighborhood? What am I missing? I'm seriously asking, I'm not trying to put down anyone's choices.

Proficiency percentages in English/Literacy and Math:

Creative Minds
32% and 41%

Inspired Teaching
50% and 35%

EL Haynes
41% and 47%

Mundo Verde
44% and 42%[/quote]
