[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's a link to a recent thread talking about funding for charters vs DCPS. See second pg for link to washpo article: http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/321534.page[/quote] Ok, once more for the cheap seats. The 35k figure is the average per pupil amount spent across DCPS. Trust me, Oyster is not receiving 35k per student--not even close. Charters can more easily rid themselves of SN students, citing behavioral issues or whatever. DCPS has to educate SN students, and they tend to do so (for the more severe cases) at private schools that can cost upwards of 40 or 50k. That amount will certainly raise the average spending amount. If you actually compared the per pupil amount that Oyster receives, I'm sure there would not be a gap between it and other immersion charters of more than a few thousand dollars, if that.[/quote]
