[quote=Anonymous]Why on earth would you actually send your kids to this school?!?! It's called international with no focus on anything international, the academics are terrible... plus there is no high school track and the location is challenging for most. you have to remember timelines ---> DC started offering free prek in 2009, which encouraged a lot more families to want to stay in the City, but the DCPS schools weren't particularly good (yet), and not a lot of parents wanted to send their 3 years to them. CMI entered the chat in 2012, with its beautiful campus and a lot of promises and from 2012-2017 it was HIGHLY sought after. However by 2017 the parents (especially with the ones that were now in upper elementary) had caught on to the fact that the founders didn't actual care at all about academics of all students ( and had really only started the school to foster the development of their special needs child), and most families were leaving. Meanwhile - a lot of the DCPS schools were remodeled and way more enticing. By the time COVID hit, and CMI leaned into some of the most extreme covid policies in 2020 and 2021 across all of DC .... game over. no thanks. - signed a previous parent. [/quote]
