[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]problem with Brightwood as a source of enrollment is that the core of Brightwood is 14th Street corridor Spanish-speaking families - the natural constituency of CHEC. That and they are very close to Paul, much closer than Coolidge. Either you build a high school based on Takoma, Whittier, and LaSalle's small eighth grade enrollments or you give up for now and try again in ten years.[/quote] All four schools have about 50 kids in their 8th grade classes. Some have bigger classes in 3rd or 4th (60-70). Still not a huge high school population since, in addition to CHEC, Coolidge has to compete with the application high schools. Lots of kids from teh neighborhood attend McKinley. Every charter could close tomorrow and DCOS still has too many high school seats. [/quote]
