[quote=Anonymous]It's also really difficult to weigh in publicly on being pro-charter options given this "PCSB and DCPS need to coordinate" quote, which is code for "ain't gonna happen, you open a charter you'll never fix Hine, so not in my watch."

So, while I appreciate Joe's thoughtful response here and I don't entirely disagree with his politics, I'm struggling with what to do for my 4th grader. MY fourth grader needs options.

Joe, will you still send your daughter to Hine if the modernization doesn't happen? How many of these other families at Maury are truly going to make the jump to Hine with you or are simply too afraid of being called a bigot so they're lying about their intentions?

Given what I know of the school id rather lottery into SH, or try my hand at Brookland or Hardy for MS.  Charters make much more sense when you have a mayor saying "find the money elsewhere, all of MY DCPS cap budget is going to ward 4!"  She and Kaya certainly aren't making me feel welcome, and are saying "deal with it" to boot. THAT'S what kills DCPS, not charters. [/quote]
