[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rocketship has never truly understood the DC families it serves. While it's a national charter, they cut their teeth in California - predominantly the San Jose region, with Hispanic families. They seemed to think they had a cookie cutter approach that could be applied anywhere, but DC's Ward 8 demographics weren't like anything they'd experienced up to that point. [b]Not sure how their Tennessee and Texas expansions are doing.[/b] [/quote] Rocketship surrendered its charter in Texas for their Forth Worth schools -- a failing financial score, struggling enrollment and an F accountability grade (in the bottom 5 lowest scoring charter schools for North Texas). Tennessee seems to have some issues too but not struggling as much as Texas and DC.[/quote]
