[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also at a DCI feeder with a DCI offer (thankfully) and families that didn’t get in are talking about moving. Precarious situation to be in and I feel terribly for those kids who are facing both that disappointment and a major transition.[/quote]

Yeah I really don't like this. This is supposed to be a feeder track that appears to run parallel to DCPS as an alternative. The system should be organized so that all the feeder elementary schools can send their kids to the middle school.

Who is running this system? [/quote]

They're not feeder schools (which would imply a guarantee)

They're member schools.

You couldn’t run a 6-12 immersion school on a feeder system, they just don’t have the capacity to expand in years where attrition isn’t as large as planned.

I’m not even sure DCI has the organizational capacity to expand (and they certainly don’t have the physical space). IB for all is already a bit of a mess and getting bigger doesn’t make it easier. [/quote]

DCI does own more buildings than they are currently using, the buildings need to be fully renovated before they can be used for class rooms. My understanding is that they do hope to renovate and expand eventually but that will not help fix the immediate space issue. [/quote]
