[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not all kids are placed through the lottery. If ITS (or any school) really wanted more at-risk kids, it could operate more self-contilained SN classrooms and work with downtown for placements. Ask for more Early Stages spots and proactively backfill mid-year vacancies via downtown's placement process. It isn't really that hard. If the administration and parents really wanted to, they would have done it already. Happy Black History Month![/quote] They could do this, but that would obviously change their mission. I don't think it's a great idea to just expand to include more special needs children if that doesn't already fit within their expertise. It would be fair for charters to take more Early Stages placements so there's parity with DCPS schools, but I don't think turning every charter into a special needs school is the answer. [/quote]
