[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am surprised the point about JLG and half days on Wednesdays is being listed as a negative. I think kids deserve a half day once a week. I had one in elementary and my son does now at charter. Also IME at our charter the asynchronous learning works especially for extended snow days because it "covers" the day and the school year doesn't need to be extended.

All I can say is thank god my youngest is a senior next year. DCPS students need more school, not less.[/quote]

Yeah we are almost done with DCPS (one more year and then my youngest will join his brother at a charter) I'm finding myself relieved. Who knows what kind of ideas are coming with the new mayor/chancellor.[/quote]

I find all the comments above hilarious. All these great charters have a half day every week or the like. Yet for your DCPS school to do it is ‘nuts.’ None of you are going to a DCPS school that is title 1 and if you are you’re not the families making it a title 1 school.

So you can figure out childcare for charters but not DCPS? Hilarious.[/quote]

My kids were at a Title I charter for ES followed by a non-Title I charter for MS and they certainly did not have a half day off every week. That would have been unworkable for us. [/quote]
