[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've mentioned this before, but I was at a Ward 4 event back when Bowser was my councilmember, and she was touting the addition of Latin as a boon for the Ward.

Multiple parents spoke up saying that it wasn't that big a deal because their kids hadn't been able to lottery into the school.

It was very obvious that this was the first time she had given the lottery any thought at all, and she was visibly bothered that there was a bit of a backlash instead of everybody standing around talking about how great she is.

Interesting. I do think this is Bowser looking for a way to get started stripping away charter autonomy.[/quote]

What on earth does that even mean?  Use your words, girl![/quote]

There is concern on the charter side for growing too large. When they have >50% of DC students, they may have held to higher levels of accountability. Some of the more financially corrupt charters will be exposed for what they are...and all the PG kids in Ward 8 charters might be rooted out.
