[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m convinced the people on this forum who praise DCI are all in upper leadership or closely aligned to them.

I don’t know who is making these posts but I have multiple friends with kids at DCI. They are all thrilled. They could very easily be making these posts as well. [/quote]

I feel the same way. We have tons of friends with kids in dci who are really happy. I find it confusing they there is so much vitriol on this thread. [/quote]

Middle school or high school? Language track? Are they in advanced math? Have they ever had a teacher quit or get fired mid-year?[b] The DCI experience is quite varied.[/b][/quote]

This is true in DCPS and the Charters in general.  You can have a fabulous experience or a horrendous experience.  It varies by year and the luck of the draw of which teachers you get.  
My kids are at Deal and some years have been amazing.  One year was horrible (we had an ELA teacher quit and she wasn't replaced for 4 months, another teacher was out on maternity leave for 3 months with no sub).  If you 
lucked out and didn't have a kid on that team, your kid probably had a great year at Deal.  If you had a kid on that team, it was terrible as there was NO instruction in 2 of the 4 core subjects for half of the year.

My motto for the DCPS experience is: "it's great until it isn't".
