[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So proud of DCB![/quote]

Also, so very proud of Sela!  They worked hard with Board meetings, staff meetings, professional input followed to the letter, and extra time & energy to bring up those scores.  That "academic improvement" you see in their results is not by luck, chance, or coincidence -- they worked very hard with individual attention to every student to make sure that the school improved while providing a language-immersion environment.

Every school could learn from their example to make sure academic rigor is not at the expense of the child, learning a second language, or having an emotionally supportive environment!

Congrats, Sela![/quote]

Yay...redemption!  Sela deserves the recognition.  [/quote]

[b]x1000.  Way to go Sela on combining language immersion with academic rigor.  It's a great school.  It went through a few bumps (that all new schools face!) and then flew over the last hurdles with grace![/b][/quote]

Not interested in re-hashing the specifics of all the problems Sela has been through, but PP you are totally INcorrect to say they went through "a few bumps" or that the big bumps they went through "all new schools go through".  There is literally NO DC charter school open right now that went through the turmoil Sela did in the beginning. Shining Stars is the 2nd biggest "bumps" of the last 5 years, but aside from "Location-gate", even SSMA's turmoil doesn't compare to Sela's.

So please don't minimize Sela's struggles to the degree of asserting "alternative facts", because it is not good for the school or for those reading that misinformation.[/quote]
