[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most of the charters in DC don’t serve students any better than traditional public schools. They are a drain on our tax dollars and I wish the city would put a moratorium on new ones opening.[/quote] This. Charters refuse to serve students with all but the mildest disabilities. How is it fair for them to do that with public funds?[/quote] Agree completely. We were at a charter and now I am ashamed we were ever foolish enough to make that choice. [/quote] It’s not your fault. In this area, they are marketed to make certain groups feel safe with DC residency and all over the country, they are a right wing darling. People don’t realize they are being tricked because they are already emotionally invested in the idea that their children are different from others and deserve better than what the traditional schools can offer. Apparently, investing time, money, and effort in improving the traditional school for all children is for a goal for chumps. Turns out charter parents are chumps, too.[/quote] The problem is not that charter schools exist. The problem is the people leading some of those charter schools. If it wasn't for charters, we'd all be prisoners of the thoroughly rotten public school system, which the pandemic has shown is controlled by WTU. What we need are a lot more vouchers so that we can escape bad charter/DCPS schools and go private. [/quote]
