[quote=Anonymous]Zero communication. The last time we heard from them was during a matched families town hall in April (which didn't even mention Covid, which was VERY weird), and then to confirm our enrollment.

My informal survey of friends indicates that the charters have been much more communicative and proactive than DCPS schools, though it sounds like some DCPS schools have been better than others. But I think the charters that were able to make their decisions on their own, and did so earlier in the summer, have a planning advantage. It's frustrating to me that families we know who are at charters have already been told what technology is needed and what will be distributed (and when), and already have communication with parents about schedules.

For a while we thought the issue was that we were new to our school. But it sounds like this is common. I think the city really hurt DCPS by pushing the decision so far into the summer. I feel like it's going to be a total mess for families and teachers, and everyone will be combative and frustrated.[/quote]
