[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not really sure what is driving your predictions here. The births in DC was rising, hit a high in 2016 and is now at nearly its lowest ever. The waitlists are shorter now for many reasons but mostly because there are significantly less kids entering the lottery and a lot of upper middle class people leaving DC. My prediction: Over the next 5 years -- some charters will be forced to close (looking at you CMI), most WOTP DCPS schools will get worse not better, as a lot of the middle/upperclass people flee dc in the next 3.3 years of this administration. MacArthur and JR will get even better -- due to financial uncertainty a lot of people WOTP that would have maybe stretched for private will opt into public options. in 5-7 years (hopefully with a positive administration change) -- things will start to shift and you will see things start to shift back to the incline from a decline... [/quote] I do not think CMI will close. It's still filling its seats, for now. If anything it may have to give up middle school grades. The closure of one or more Rocketship locations in the area may make it easier for CMI to fill elementary seats. [/quote]
