[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But only for PK3 & 4. No admissions beyond those years. No undesirables with the special snowflakes. [/quote] My kid is one of the "special snowflakes" you reference and I am getting really tired of folks bashing charters that don't open up spaces in the upper primary or lower elementary grades to the lottery wait lists and saying it is because they want to keep some secret formula of students together. It has nothing to do with keeping the snowflakes in their own little snowglobe. It is about class size, moderating teacher to pupil ratios and maintaining the ability to provide quality education and services to the student body. My not so special, but very lucky snowflake has been at LAMB since P3 and now in 1st grade and we've seen her class size grow every year - too much so IMO. But it is clearly an example of why the school has to draw a line after which grade they will no longer allow new students. So stop with projecting elitism on the charter schools and just deal with the fact that your lottery number did not work out for you.[/quote]
