[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I agree that DC is "different" to put it nicely. DC politics does not allow for test-in to charters for anything and only preferences are given to siblings of current student. Believe me, everyone would LOVE to have test-in schools for gifted programs, language immersion, etc. But since this will give middle class kids an advantage over the underprivileged, it will not happen here. You'll be happy to know that Yu Ying has tried to get the DCPCSB to allow testing-in for kids who are proficient in Mandarin for the higher grades, TWICE!, and been turned down twice.[/quote] Thank you for the insight! I understand the need for equal educational opportunities for children who are not as privileged. Perhaps DC International will be a viable option for us a few years from now.[/quote]
