[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dear Ladies,  we are moving to DC this sumer and this forum has been a tremendous help. We are not in love with our IB and were wondering ig you could share your knowledge about what are the best charter out there. We most likely will be in the Capitol hill area.
We dont love the charter school idea much (we believe in public education) but it seems a lot of long time DC resident prefer Charter versus IB. Is that true?[/quote]

What don't you like about your IB?  Have you visited?  Talked to any current parents?  Are you unhappy about test scores?  Facilities?  Diversity?  Are you basing this on anonymous internet posters or secondhand or outdated opinions?  What criteria are you using?  It's hard to recommend a charter if we don't know what you care about wrt a school.

And it is impossible to generalize about IB v. charter schools.  Some neighborhood schools are great, some are terrible.  Some charters are good, some are not.  There is no "best" charter, because what's great for one family is a bad fit for another.  [/quote]
