[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of the drawbacks of so-called school choice is that some people will make choices you won't agree with.  [b]Unless, of course, you get to choose who gets a choice and what choices they are allowed to make.[/b] [/quote]

Well put. They apparently wish they had that power.  [/quote] I don't want that power. I do wish parents would think a bit about consequences for on school and only enroll if it is possible they'd stay if school is good enough. Wotp chartermom above is great example. No problem with her [/quote]

Riddle me this. What if you chose a school and then people fled (either because of leadership change or any other reason). Now your kid is in a subpar school. But if you leave that will make it worse for the kids you leave behind. Are you required to leave your kid in a diminishing educational environment? If you think that makes you a bigger person then so be it. My kids are more important than your faux principles.[/quote] of course you leave if the school isn't good enough, as long as you enrolled with the possibility of staying, which jklm parents dont. [b]Most people charter into their 3rd or worse choice with the possibility of staying if it is a fantastic fit. Happened to us. Our school was 6th choice and yet we didn't play lottery this year. [/b]That is the difference

I think this is where you are wrong. Most people don't judge a school by their prek3 experience, they make decisions based on the long-term perspective.[/quote]
