[quote=Anonymous]From the Wilson working group last night: When not as many students as projected enrolled at Deal this year, DCPS ordered Deal’s principal to pull into dozens of students from the waitlist. DCPS said it was to hold schools accountable to meeting projected enrollments. People commented that the school already incredibly over-enrolled, and that removing kids from other schools also seem to penalize the other schools by decreasing their enrollment. DCPS indicated that they would need to be more thoughtful about this process going forward, but wouldn’t commit to any changes. Also: Lafayette and Janney were identified as not having sufficient space to expand to projected growth by 2025. Lafayette just finished a $78 million expansion, during which they forecast that the school population would decrease when they drew up their plans.... I guess I shouldn't be shocked. But I am shocked.[/quote]
