[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does DCPS really WANT to empty their own classrooms? cos this sounds like a recipe for that....it also sounds like economic resegregation to me...will lamb, washington latin, mundo verde effectively be out of reach of anyone not in NW?[/quote] Yes - DCPS wants to do this because they have no other choice -- they are being overtaken by private interests running charter schools. If DCPS administrators fight this, they will lose their jobs and their reputations. Both are at risk, because, let's face it, "reform" isn't working. The millions that the donors invested in IMPACT and merit pay have been wasted. If DCPS leaders go along with it, they will be eligible for positions in Charter administration. It's all about protecting adult interests at the expense of what best for children - the very thing reformers have accused teachers of doing.[/quote]
