[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a very smart strategy. And yet I must ask: if MySchool has arbitrarily decided charters can’t do a thing the OSSE regulations clearly say charters can absolutely do - [b]why would this workaround protect the charter[/b] accepting the transfer from their misplaced wrath? That student would still eventually be enrolled at the charter “in violation” (eyeroll) of the birthday cutoff. It still feels necessary for MySchool to finally read the OSSE regulations that make an exception for IEP students - and no distinction between DCPS and charter when it comes to said exception - and start abiding by them. Just my two cents.[/quote]

It would protect the charter because the enrollment would be through My School DC. My School DC provides a Centralized Waitlist Management System (CWMS) with matched and waitlisted students. Schools are required to use the CWMS to extend offers and enroll students. The CWMS is also where student preferences are reflected by My School DC. So a school would be protected because they'd just be taking the student through the normal My School DC process. That's my theory at least. I could be completely wrong.

In complete agreement with you on My School DC reading the regulations and abiding by them. It seems like such a simple fix. And also, the responsible thing to do. The earlier a child has services, the better.

There is a Common Lottery Board that governs My School DC. They set the rules for My School DC so they should be able to fix this. https://www.myschooldc.org/about/common-lottery-board
