[quote=Anonymous]We got in last year and rejected it because of poor communication from administrators, no promise of any sort of community event or open house over the summer, and just average test scores. The woman I talked with encouraged me to hold onto a spot at my current school while accepting at Stokes and when I said I couldn't ethically do that, she didn't understand why. I also don't like that they didn't join in the PCS common app last year or the myschool common lottery. When given the choice, we honestly didn't think it was all that, so we chose not to become a Stokes family. Other families may not have that choice and so they accept it, warts and all. Maybe when it was one of the few charters in the city, but now with others around that have strong communication, active parent engagement and events, and better scores, we had no problems saying no.[/quote]
