[quote=Anonymous]Well, having seen several charters run themselves right into the ground, I don't think independence and community control is really all that. Yes change is possible. If you look long-term, or even just the past 10 years, you'll see there has been quite a bit of change. It's important that you check the box on LSAT and stuff so that DCPS can't say people refused to engage. And often times it's valuable as a learning experience for the participants just to increase their background knowledge. I like to assign stuff like that to newer parents so they learn, and to see if they're truly up for it. DCPS listening varies widely. Often times they do listen and are sympathetic but are overruled. And often times what parents want costs a lot of money and that's the main problem. Don't be naive about that. [/quote]
