[quote=Anonymous][quote]When will people realize you can't control public charter school enrollment by address. What part of "public" in public charter is so hard to grasp? [/quote] Um, there's the word "public" in "public schools," and these are all controlled by address. It's not like it's written in the Bible or something that charter schools have to be District-wide. This is something that leaders chose once upon a time, and it can be changed. Also, I get the sense that Vincent Gray is interested in expanding charter schools across the city to address specific performance issues at DCPS. For places that are poorly served by DCPS and where parents are worried about their ability to get in someplace good via lottery, it would make sense to give preference to the students whose local, in-bounds DCPS options are weak.
