[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Food for thought: is there a school in DC that does a good job of educating all types of students, including the most advanced and the “hardest work”? It’s virtuous to ask that all schools welcome everyone, but DC schools — with maybe a very few exceptions — aren’t wildly successful at their mission. Maybe BASIS’s specialization is an instructive tale rather than a cautionary one? Is there a way to creatively and equitably get more students exactly the program that they, as individuals, need?[/quote] Yeah, I think this is what charters were meant to do, in theory. Allow for more customization of a program and let families choose which "fit" best. Unfortunately we end up with a lottery where very free get lucky and your entire school pathway may be set on what your child was like at 2.5 or 3 years old.[/quote]
