[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don't have to convince us, although several of us seem skeptical about any proposal to create a charter that doesn't fill any broadly shared social goal, whether that goal is serving under-served kids or building the multi-lingual workforce of the future.  The group you will need to convince is the charter school board. But so far I haven't seen them approve anything that caters quite so obviously to upper NW families with such narrow interests. There's always a first time, though.[/quote]

It worked for Washington Latin and Washington Yu Ying.  How different, really, is the concept of Washington Hebrew?  Would it skew disproportionately middle and upper-middle class?  Yes, so do they.  Would it still serve low-income students?  Yes, so do they.  The idea of the school is to provide an education to all student who are enrolled, not just the Jewish ones.  [/quote]

It's very different from Latin and Yu Ying - many PPs have pointed out why.  You need to think about these earlier posts, rather than just keep asking us to repeat the same thing over and over.

I mean it: if you want this concept to succeed, you need to take criticism seriously, and figure out good responses, rather than just pretending you just don't hear any criticism.[/quote]
