[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. Really. Check out the map. Clusters that have Tier 1 charter middle schools in them ( there are 36 of these ) are not considered needy because there are high quality seats there.[/quote] This points to something in the IFF report that utterly confounds me. The authors seem to view the presence of a good charter school in one's neighborhood as being equivalent to having a good neighborhood school. And the report proposes encouraging high-performing charters to set up shop in underserved areas. But that good charter could have a waitlist of 100+ students--so of what use is it to kids in the cluster where it's located? Did I just not understand what the report was saying? Or did I understand correctly, but do others not see this as a problem?[/quote]
