[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't really see it as an issue of giving a few families an unfair advantage at one school. The real issue is the precedent that is being set that DCPS runs city-wide lottery schools. If they can make this one school a city-wide lottery school then they can do it to any school at any time. We already have a whole system of city-wide lottery schools - the charter system - and I don't want DCPS to get into the habit of opening non-magnet city-wide lottery schools. I say keep all DCPS school neighborhood schools and let all charter schools stay city-side. Don't muddy the waters either by giving charters the right to grant neighborhood preference or giving DCPS schools the right to become city-wide without competitive admissions based on talent. [/quote] This is exactly my concern! Thank you so much for this post! I am extremely concerned about both Logan and SWS turning into citywide lottery schools. It is a huge blow for Capitol Hill.
