[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm neither a cheerleader or hater here; in fact, I'm on the fence about whether I'd send my child (and we are Jewish and do value Hebrew learning since DC will have to learn it eventually). My hang-up has more to do with the location, which is geographically undesirable for us, and the lack of a track record being a brand new school. Two things I learned at the forum: (1) They estimate only ~10% of the student body will be Jewish. (I don't know how they arrived at that number); and, (2) [b]they are planning for class sizes of 25 children[/b], which struck me as large for a charter school, particularly for pre-k. (I'd expect that at a popular DCPS with lots of IB kids, but a new charter?) And an observation - the free before and after-care may be a draw for some families. [/quote] Really 25 kid class size for an immersion school? Too big even for only English. [/quote]
