[quote=Anonymous]I have always understood the word lottery to mean someon will win and someone will loose and definition two to be that if a lottery is neccessary it is a scarce good. Lots and lots of reasons that high quality public education should not be based on a "lottery" but that has been the point of a lot of education reformers paradoxally both on the pro and anti-charter side. The fact is that DC is now in the midst of one of the largest social experiments in American education system since mid-last century. Unlike many on these posts I can't quite decide if charters are saving us or dividing us, but they are facts on the ground and lot of us in borderline neighborhoods are going to have to reconcile ourselves to their impact and maybe get a lot more activist in our neighborhoods.
