[quote=Anonymous]Its actually not really about price and more about space. How vacant and avaialble buildings that are suitable for a school even exist in the City? Up until about 9 years ago, most old DCPS schools were sold to the private sector and converted to condos. Then others closed due to lack of enrollment all over the City. There really are only a handful of sites in the entire City. A charter schools gets them whenever they can actually find one. If they have a lot of high income parents they may be able to fundraise a lot more and get something in a better area (Basis, CMI etc)[/quote]
