[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]

The elementary schools are very aware of DCI’s enrollment constraints. They expanded after DCI told the middle school would not match the moves.

But most charters have to expand enrollment to continue being viable. So it’s a no-win situation for the elementaries. [/quote]

Stokes had plans to open a small language-focused MS EOTR and DCI made them abandon that effort.  It would work so much better for the kids at the East End Campus.[/quote]

That's pretty annoying, especially because DC could use more diversity for language immersion at the MS level (lots of demand, too few options with too few seats).

I am curious if the Spanish-focus program at Jefferson, which they are putting together to help serve the language immersion at Chisolm, might start to attract kids from immersion charters who get shut out of DCI. [/quote]
