[quote=Anonymous]The PCSB chose to pause authorizing any new schools last year, they announced that. So that's why you aren't seeing any. I do think it feels like it's maturing. Much of the demand for Spanish language instruction, for example, has been met (at least, demand for Spanish language instruction at semi-dysfunctional elementary schools :-)) The enrollment and performance of some charter schools has been iffy lately (I mean MV and TR having major issues but also some less-discussed-on-DCUM schools like Imagine Hope Tolson and Capital Village running into enrollment trouble) and that's caused the PCSB to look inward, and stop patting themselves on the back and talking tough about how wonderful charter schools are. It's time for a natural re-evaluation, and it's not out of the question that some could voluntarily fold. Sometimes outside providers prefer to voluntarily close to avoid an embarrassing shutdown on their record.[/quote]
