[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If people don’t like their new inbounds school, they are not going to just suck it up as you suggest. They will go to one of the many charter schools that are reproducing like bunnies to meet their growing demand. [/quote] The charter board just closed schools. There are few new ones opening -- it has slowed to a trickle. DCPS, on the other hand, has opened Ron Brown high school in the last 3 years, is opening Bard College High School next fall, is opening a new middle school College and launching (yet another) early college application school within Coolidge, and will be doubling the capacity of Banneker. At the other end of the continuum, they've tried to boost enrollment in struggling elementary schools through the early action PK program. And they continue to take OOB at Wilson feeder schools so as not to fall the charter sector in the total number of students served metric (including at Lafayette, Janney, Murch, Eaton, Hardy).
