[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Thanks for the replies.  I think I just had bad timing with the original post and was surprised it made people mad.  I'm trying to figure out some stuff ahead of the lotteries next year for PS the following year.  We'll probably apply to all of usual suspects for charter schools, and I'll try to see which OOB lotteries we might have a chance at getting in based on this year's results.

PPs 13:31 and 11:20, which schools were these?

How do parents like Springboard aftercare?[/quote]

I'm a little annoyed at how Springboard promised us the world at Brent, and then delivered about 60% of what they promised.  It is better than the DCPS aftercare was, but I would still give it maybe a 7/10.  We've had several staff changes for my children, but I'm actually very happy with the teachers my kids have now.  It does get very expenisve though - 3 kids in Springboard, each child has one paid-elective, and then the days off school and half days (where we usually have to find camps and pay extra).  We have had zero TV this year with Springboard (but the older kids do get computer game time).

I love the on-line and automatic payment.  I wish they would cover more of the half days and days off and communicate better about these.  [/quote]
