[quote=Anonymous]I agree. I knew exactly what OP was talking about. Great question. The sad answer is that there's not any. The pro charter movement is so well funded everywhere that they easily set up to lobby for more charters in DC and other cities, at the expense of neighborhood schools. The cap hill public school group led by Suzanne wells and others is about as close as it gets. It's too bad because I have always felt that there should be a local advocacy group for exactly what you describe not just to counter the pro-charter rhetoric, but also to bring some balance and rational planning for a comprehensive school system. Also, a group like that could put more organized pressure on DCPS to tout their successes and strengths, while still pushing Dcps to improve. [/quote]
