[quote=Anonymous]MV has been a hot mess since the beginning. It only was able to retain its sought after status a few years longer than CMI (and maybe Shining Stars) because it’s immersion and DCI feeder kept upper middle class families there a bit longer past their expiration date and they didn’t see the same flight as CMI in the same time period. Pandemic exacerbated the issues and made it impossible for upper middle class families to continue to ignore the long-stemming issues despite having a feed to a halfway decent middle school. Not to even mention the continued day time shootings at P street. At some point, families have to consider “at what cost” scenarios. Sure, 8th St may be in a “safer” area but the cancer that remains with MV admin and teachers still impacts 8th St.

As a former parent from a “HRCS” and current DCPS, the fact of the matter is there are only a handful of charters that are better schools than most neighborhood DCPS schools. IMHO, you’re talking about Latin, Basis, Two Rivers, KIPP, DCB (maybe Inspired Teaching, DC Prep, LAMB, Stokes). I’m sure I’ve missed a few but MV does not belong even on the “maybe” list IMO. Immersion DCPS &gt; MV. [/quote]
