[quote=Anonymous]What the Hill "old timers" understand that the Brent Jefferson boosters don't seem to is how slowly DCPS moves. This is the problem that torpedoed a nascent Brent-Jefferson nexus back in 2009. I attended some of the parent meetings. DCPS remains very attached to 10-year school turnaround plans where a 3-5 year plan would do. Brent parents charge to Latin, BASIS, and get on the path to DCI early, because the better charters have proven much more nimble organizations than DCPS. As long as City Council members don't get voted in out because the traditional school system drags its feet, the system continues to march in the right direction at a snail's pace. It will be very interesting to see if Charles Allen, good on many issues but a foot dragger on MS, gets through this year's election. [/quote]
