[quote=Anonymous]in terms of looking to the future at a new charter school - you just never know how things will develop.  we started at a now very well regarded, long wait list charter the day it opened it's doors.  Our children attended for many years from early childhood on...but when a school starts and develops you never quite know how the upper grades are going to turn out.  There seems to be more turnover and trouble with middle schools in charters, even the 'best' ones.   We ended up going elsewhere for middle but I don't regret what our kids did get from that charter.  It was good for them for quite some time.  I don't think you can ever predict how your kid's needs will be attended to in middle school when you're starting in prek.  Kids change, schools change and needs are not always met...even in the most expensive private school or well established public you just never know.  It's a year by year thing and if you think you can really be settled at prek for the next 8 - 12 years....I think you're in for a shock. Go with what you think will work for about 4 years and see how things develop.  Middle school choices are changing in DC and I think there will be many more to choose from by the time these prek'ers are headed there.[/quote]
