[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Make noise - write the school's board of directors and cc Ward 4 Council members, FOCUS, members of the DCPCSB, Building Hope, and anyone else you can think of. There's no reason that before care must be provided by guides - in most school it is lower paid aides who do it for precisely the reasons listed above. It may not break even, but schools need to do this to accommodate all families, current and future. [/quote] Other than the school's board of directors, none of those people can really do anything or have to care about your opinion. It's the flip side of less accountability for charter schools. There's no elected official to address your concerns with.[/quote] When a charter is changing things they stated in their application, the DCPCSB will ask questions and can push back. And their before/after care plans were front and center and related to their commitment to serve families of all income. [/quote] I think that they still have before care, it is just 8:00am - 8:45am. School doesn't start until 8:45, right?. [/quote] No, that is breakfast family style for the school. It is not considered before school. The ED said as much. The point is not that its school and not day care. Not everyone has a job that starts at 9. They should have told people before the common lottery. They do this a lot. [/quote]
