[quote=Anonymous]If so, what was your experience? DC Prep's qualitative review from the Public Charter School Board was really great and they have good test scores, so we're thinking about it. However, I'm a little concerned about DS going to a school where we're not the target audience--will the school feel DS is taking a seat away from someone who needs it more? Will our on-track child be overlooked to focus more attention on the kids who are behind? Our EOTP in-boundary school is pretty bad, and the charters popular with the DCUM crowd have pretty slim odds. I think KIPP schools had 6,000 applications for 1,000 seats, though. Not sure how many applications DC Prep got per slot. [/quote]
