[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am 100% certain DCPS did not tell charters anything about the plan they announced yesterday. Hell, they didn't even tell their own teachers.

This is just like in the spring when DCPS announced they were going to close 3 weeks early and then charters had to scramble to decide if they would follow that lead or not.

And in the summer, when DCPS fully planned to open virtually before announcing at the end of July that they'd be in DL until the end of the first term, and a whole bunch of charters who were ready to open in a phased hybrid plan changed everything to adjust to that announcement.

[b]It would be one thing if DCPS's plans seem well-reasoned and like they will be well-executed. But they don't, and it's frustrating that charters continue to put themselves in this reactive position.[/b][/quote]

Very much agree with the bolded. We are at a popular charter known for strong leadership and they keep being duped by DCPS. After the 3rd time, isn't it clear now is the time to take advantage of autonomy and make your own reasonable plan?! It's so disappointing. I was a strong proponent of the charter system until seeing how little most schools have done to use their independence during this time.[/quote]

Exactly this! Why are charters following DCPS lead when instead they should be the ones showing alternatives? I'm so disappointed.[/quote]
