[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Today:  "Honey, on an annonymous listserv that is frequented by people with ample time on their hands and varied motives, LAMB came in with 12% of the vote!  Guess we know where we're sending our darling!"

18 months from now:  "well dear, we only got in to Sela.  Guess we better jump on DCUM and talk it up :/"[/quote]

People leave all of these schools in droves for "less" hot (in the subjective, striving, and/or myopic minds of the DCUM mob) charters, DCPS, and privates all of the time. LAMB packs up to 30 kids in a classroom - some thrive in this child-driven environment, others fail. Same at all of the mentioned schools. What of Bridges? What of Shining Stars? Appletree? Bethune is changing things up and Sela is doing well (put down the guns, haters). The assumption is that Stokes is a good school for everyone (it isn't) or that IT is challenging enough for all students (also nope). "Ranking" schools is BS. Everybody's snowflake is unique, folks!

I wonder, are you somehow related to the crazy Sela booster that Jeff already outed as a sock puppet and active manipulator of DCUM threads:

Because it is quite clear that the problem here wasn't some "haters," but a Sela booster gone wild in her attempts to hide the fact that the principal resigned the first week of school.

In any case, why are we even talking about Sela, a promising but literally new school, when OP is asking about "best 3-5 DC public charters"?

True, OP didn't ask what we're the up and coming/nice alternative if you don't get off the wait list.  She asked what were the top 3-5.  Let her do the research as far as class size, challenging schools etc.[/quote]

+1. Both the Sela mention and the "haters" innuendo were superfluous and not helpful. [/quote]
