[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Overall #2. But it's catch 22. DCPS in our neighborhood is good (Shepherd) although many historically have and will continue to always go private. Citywide, if it weren't for charters I don't think DCPS would even be competitive as they are today. [/quote] +1. Also IB at Shepherd--I see some of my neighbors sending their kids to HRCS, but I don't think many of these are in direct competition. Many offer features that just aren't available at Shepherd, such as language immersion and Montessori. Despite this competition, IB % is increasing at Shepherd, so it seems good neighborhood DCPS and charters can, in some instances, peacefully coexist. :)[/quote]
