[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tommy Wells and Charles Lane should issue a statement listing the charter schools they target to close admission or some portion thereof to ALL kids of D.C. [/quote] Read the article. The proposal is to require some neighborhood preferences for charters moving into closed DCPS schools. If a charter doesn't want to alter its admissions policies, that's fine--they can just find another space, and a school more interested in serving the neighborhood can move in instead.[/quote] "they can just find another space" Do you have any idea how hard that is? After years of playing games with charters on closed DCPS schools to THEN put conditions on them moving into feed up buildings (due to DCPS underperformance). That just gets a heck no! If DCPS wants to transform its own schools into charters and have in-boundary preference let them. Otherwise, let charters function the way they were designed to![/quote]
