[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Logan is a DCPS. They can put in enrollment criteria but charters can't (eg Spanish fluency at Oyster and elsewhere).

That said I am a parent of 2 LAMB alums and think they should be required to backfill all ages if there is room. Lee is figuring out how to take old children without Montessori and LAMB can too. [/quote]Thank you for correcting the self-righteous Gem! OTOH, I disagree that LAMB should take older children. It would water down the program. It's already criticized by purist for not being Montessori-enough. And it is not a public social experiment. It's a place of learning for its attendees. The lack of space at quality schools is not the problem of those schools to fix. Their hands are filled providing stellar education to kids who would be otherwise under-served. Providing quality seats where there is none is the job of DCPS and the Kaya Henderson crew. What needs to happen is LAMB should be left to educate in a manner consistent with Montessori (which excludes admission at older grades) and DCPS needs to fix neighborhood schools.[/quote]
