[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC Public Schools failed these neighborhoods for many years. Charters stepped in to fill gaps where DC was unwilling to do the hard work. The only reason why Petworth, Logan etc is a thing is because families had the option of sending their children to a charter. Would you send your kid to Thomson elementary school if there was 5th grader who shared coke with classmates? That is what happened 10 years ago. There is a long history of what Charters did to make DC what it is now. [/quote] Exactly. You can thank charter schools for part of the hot DC real estate market in recent decades.[/quote] I agree with this, but what is the plan for phasing them out? I think a moratorium on NEW charters is entirely appropriate at this point.[/quote]
