[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Getting a Charter school is a mute point. Don't you think there could have already been a lets say replica of Basis or Latin if real estate wasn't an issue.[/quote]

I think If DCPS saw this as a solution to a problem it has, they would work with the city to make it work. [/quote]

You must be new here.

No way does DCPS see a charter as a solution to any problem it has. The two sectors are in an unstated grudge match for 'market share' and one additional reason DCPS opens up OOB seats and is expanding HS options is to claw back students from charters.

DCPS has a higher proportion of high school students already and is expanding and opening more application schools to build on that.[/quote]

It's an appalling waste of taxpayer dollars that there are two separate boards for charter vs. public (helloooo duplication). THAT should be fixed now.  (FWIW, I think middle and HS charters would be great, and options beyond performing arts such as International Baccalaureate curriculum, a science charter, math charter...  all sorts of specialized curriculum that could appeal to high performing students and high-income parents.)[/quote]
