[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How are you able to 'pull some strings' to get your child into a charter? This is illegal in DC. Charter admission is by lottery.[/quote] Charters virtually everywhere are by lottery, with preferences for things like Board members, teachers, or specific neighborhoods. If by "pulling strings" you mean skirting the legal admissions process, I wouldn't do it, OP--even if it works, if you are found out, your child likely has to return to the first school anyway. Not worth it, especially when compounded by the aftercare situation. I'd wait till you can afford the aftercare to explore that option.[/quote]
