[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many charters have half days one day a week. Among them: DC Bilingual Bridges Most of the rest we applied to. I don't really care one way or the other that they changed the calendar. With all due respect, this is in no way a "last minute change." It's March. You all are sounding kind of entitled. By the way, at Inspired Teaching we don't usually air our dirty laundry on DCUM. We talk directly to each other and to the administration. If you need this much control, you may not be cut out for Charters. Count me as another parent who hopes the administration doesn't cave on this. [/quote] +1[/quote] Quiz time: How do schools with great promise continue to drop in quality an prestige over time? Answer: By creating a culture of fear and reprisal with the tired old control mechanism that we should "keep it in-house". ITS would have been much better off if there had been open and honest dialogue about things that were creating dissatisfaction. Instead they basically told people who had any constructive feedback to STFU and get out if they didn't like it. Be careful what you wish for ITS. You ITS apologists aren't helping the cause, you are hurting it. [/quote]
