[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]There are several at my kids' school. They drive 40 minutes + each way to get to the school [/quote]

Name the school.

The MySchool data map, which contains actual data of this exact type, tells us that there is only one elementary charter school (Yu Ying) that honestly draws "7-11" students from 20015, 20016 and Key/Palisades.

Otherwise, I have to call BS on the "several."  [/quote]

Lee.  Yes, there are several.  I assume this is replicated at other charters.[/quote]

agree. I don't know that many people at Lee (busy, working mom) and know at least 2 families in good school districts who commute.  I imagine that number is higher at YY and CM etc., which have lovely permanent locations.  People who choose charters don't JUST choose charters because their neighborhood school sucks.  It is why people in  JKML pay for Aiden or WIS or waldorf.  They want something different.  Make my neighborhood school into the best little neighborhood school in DC, and I'll still be at lee.[/quote]

an not because lee is better - it offers something different that I want for my kids.[/quote]
