[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Charters are becoming less of a crapshoot. Poorly performing charters actually get shut down a lot more quickly than poorly performing DCPS schools do - and schools like Basis raise the bar. Meanwhile, if someone's worred about property values around the better DCPS schools going down, that doesn't make sense either. Having charter schools pop up that are good doesn't somehow suddenly make the good DCPS schools worse. And meanwhile, not having to worry as much about being IB opens up a lot of new opportunity, which is good for the city in terms of money and investment to improve neighborhoods - that makes charters a good thing for every part of the city.[/quote] Yes, improving charters help us hold onto our incoming tax base and compete eith Arlington and MoCo.[/quote]
