[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Shouldn’t DC close some of these low enrollment, poor performing charters just for economies of scales issues? The budget is going to get tighter and tighter and perhaps centralizing the operations at DCPS is the way to save some money. And these schools aren’t educating anyone at the moment (before any commenter points out, yes I know DCPS has similar educating issues. But we are legally required to offer schooling to these kids, might as well house the operations costs at central office where I think there is more experience and support than at many charters).[/quote] I think they are hoping the performance and financial rationales for closure will close enough schools that it isn't necessary. Economies of scale definitely is playing a role in the application process for new charters, where they have to do multiple draft budgets and the enrollment projections and already-approved future capacity in the city is part of the review.
