[quote=Anonymous]I toured KIPP on M Street SE when my DD was a toddler. The head of KIPP (Susan) told me to my face, "This school isn't for your family. If you want a better choice than your in-bounds DCPS school, move to Palisades." Our public schools - charter and neighborhood - should serve all District kids. Jay Matthews is a joke. I'd like Mr. Martel to explain to those of us who pay taxes and live in the District why we all can't pick up the phone and call the Wilson (or Deal) Principal and get a spot for our out-of-boundary student athletes. Upper NW DCPS schools skirt the admissions system (in many cases based on sports) to the great detriment of the rest of the city.[/quote]
