[quote=Anonymous]Residents of Brookland are way too concerned with getting into charter schools. It's a mindset thing. And also because so many charters are sitting right there, so that early adopters of those never had to think too hard whether they are really worth the hype. Well, I'm here to tell you they are not. If you embrace your IB or near-IB option, you can make that work to your advantage, and to your child's, as another PP suggested. Stop looking at it as a loss/strike-out and see it as an opportunity, with upsides of being close, of getting some TLC, of teachers actually caring that you and your child are there and happy, of everyone knowing your child (because they care to and the schools aren't so big and transient), of dealing with level-headed parents rather than Type A wrecks on most days.[/quote]
