[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The discussions cited in the article have nothing to do with Haynes or YY.

It's been about what to do with the DCPS schools near KIPP campuses. This has been going on for a while under the radar. KIPP doesn't want to give up anything (can you blame them?) in order to take over DCPS schools near their buildings. After the Friends of Bedford fiasco the Rhee put in and Henderson cleaned up, it's not surprising the DCPS isn't in a rush to fully outsource to charters.

As a PP stated, DCPS can barely manage residency issues. But at least has centralized electronic lottery. Imagine if all the individual charters had to verify boundaries for each location AND continue to run separate lotteries and waitlists? What a nightmare.

The only way to make anything neighborhood-based work is if the charter and DCPS boundaries were the same and used the same lottery database and waitlist policies.

Not holding my breath on that one.[/quote]

You mean a thread meandered off from the original focus of the post? Shocking.[/quote]
