[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]BASIS should be held accountable for a lot of things, as a franchise and a DC branch.  These include purposely rehabbing a building without creating a library, stage, or any outdoor space (even my equally cramped Manhattan school installed a basketball court on the roof), offering what's surely the weakest MS PE program in the DC public system, [/b][/quote]

I think BASIS is pretty creepy, but in this case you need to put the blame where it's due, which is at the foot of the DC Council which continues to flout the law.  The per pupil allotment at charters is about half that of DCPS, to the tune of a few thousand dollars per students.

IF the Council truly cared about providing more excellent educations for DC schoolchildren, it would close Coolidge at the end of this year, and allow several charters to have access.  We don't need another $150 million dollar facility for 300 students, half of whom won't graduate anyway.[/quote]

Wrong! The per pupil allotment is the same amount for DCPS students as DCPCS ones. Teachers in DCPCS, however, are definitely paid less than DCPS ones.[/quote]
