[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are not for several reasons. One is that the admin seems so uptight. Zoe is too young and I think this is an upstream swim for her.  As the school grows, it will be more challenging.[/quote]

Sorry to hear you're leaving.  I hope you have found a school that 's a better fit for your family.

Actually, I was happy to read your post.  You stated your issue was an "up tight" administration and what "might" happen in the future.  Those are personal observations, feelings and worries that are outside of the current quality of teaching, student engagement, or school environment--all of which most parents at IT rave about. I have no reason to believe that these positives will change in the near future.

Zoe is not warm and fuzzy with parents but, I don't need a new BFF and--in her defense--these are Type A DC parents we're talking about here  :).  I'd stand back a little too  :).

I certainly don't think she's gotten every administrative decision right (what leader does), but the school, IMO, has lived up to its name, so they did get the most important thing right.  I have to give hZoe big credit for pulling off the herculean task of getting a first year charter off the ground.  DCUM can be brutal but if you look back over the IT strings you'll find 85% or more of the posts positive, and 99% of what little griping there is, is about the administration.

I'd say, by DCUM standards, that's not too bad for a first year charter.[/quote]
