[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But why did CMI not keep up with "better" charters? I understand some people want language immersion, but what about ITS, TR, ELHaynes?[/quote] Another old timer here. CMI’s model was set to fail from beginning. They were focusing on small class sizes which meant that they needed to hire a lot of new teachers. In fact, CMI hired quite a few ITS teachers in training for many years. ITS’s model was larger classrooms but with 1 very experienced teacher and a teacher in training. The model worked well. Also, having strong leadership matters a lot. No school is perfect but I’ve never understood why CMI remained to be popular despite their dismal scores. But then I reminded myself it’s likely the same reason Banneker has white kids in single digits 😂.[/quote]
