[quote=Anonymous]I was impressed with Bridges, really impressed.  Even though we are really really really hoping DC gets into a PK-4 that at least goes up through middle school, they took so much time to discuss their program and their passion and knowledge was great.  I like Appletree too.

I loved Creative Minds, they were the most helpful when we started on this charter school journey last year (even though DC didn't get in) and again they were amazing.

I liked that STokes had a student there who, if you stopped to ask her questions, actually had some great answers.  Stokes had great info, but who knows if they'll even have any lottery openings this year for PK-4, so we'll see....

Was also underwhelmed by LAMB, but I still will do the open house.  And I didn't expect much from DC Bilingual but again, they mostly underwhelmed me as well.

Definitely liked YuYing, felt like their presentation was simple but they spent as much time as you needed answering questions.

I actually continue to be UNDERwhelmed by Capital City!  I don't know why, but I just don't vibe well with them.  Don't get me wrong, if DC gets in, and that's the best we get, no way would I turn it down... but there's just something that doesn't feel as warm as I want from them.  Kinda similar with EL Haynes unfortunately, although when I've stopped into EL Haynes itself I've gotten a warmer feeling so it's still above Cap City on my fantasy list.

There were some high schools that seemed very cool, but since kids are elementary age I didn't pay that much attention.  Also liked a few other smaller schools but I doubt I'd move DC from where she is now for them so not gonna list them.
