[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Shutting down a high school with 350 students who are not performing at an acceptable level does not solve the problem. It is not like Jeannie can all blink them away, they will go to the next available high school. Then what is the next "plan" do we just give another 5 year plan to say that by 2017 that DCPS will be on the right track for recovery.[/quote] five years into reform, DC has the same batch of failing schools. Turning them into charters isn't going to change anything except that [b]private companies will profit from them[/b].[/quote] Not true. Charter schools in DC (like the vast majority of charter schools) are non-profits. Even KIPP is managed through a non-profit in DC. As long as charter schools are doing a better job, then let's concentrate on closing the DCPS schools and replacing them with something that works better.[/quote]
