[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I don't. They aren't fair, but they are the system everywhere I have ever seen (in the US) and I don't think they are going anywhere, so I don't waste my energy having feelings about their existence. Lol. In some places though, where charters are decent and each charter conducts its own lottery, charters are a partial solution to the unfairness of school boundaries. Here, charters have no boundaries, but they still have the same crappy sibling preference issue. [/quote] You do realize that each charter sets its own preferences, right? (I thought each school but maybe its each LEA so DCPS has uniform preferences across all schools.) So, you could easily lobby a specific charter and ask they consider dropping the sibling preference. They likely won't drop that or staff preference either because schools are communities and what's "fair" isn't as binary as you seem to think.[/quote]
