[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would any parents in the feeders support expansion if it means cutting their chances of getting into DCI?[/quote] Why would you think parents supported expansion in any of the cases? Parents have very little influence on these decisions.[/quote] +1. The PCSB encourages Tier 1 schools to expand, especially those that offer immersion, which is what so many parents say they want. That puts pressure on the schools, but usually, the plan is cooked (with the school's own board approving the plan) by the time parents are informed. Adding to that, the feeder administration and boards have little to no influence on DCI's decisions. They really are six totally separate organizations. [/quote] The parents can’t collectively raise a stink, a vote of no confidence in leadership or take it public? Charters hate public fights from parents?[/quote]
