[quote=Anonymous][quote=delphia]Okay, so how do you suppose Mayor Gray and the Council would feel about providing a tax credit to parents of 3yo's that were not accepted into any public and/or charter schools? Makes perfect sense to me. If the city/DCPS cannot facilitate all of the pre-school children in terms of schooling, then the city should help pay for their daycare. I live in a wonderful neighborhood, less than two blocks from my closest school (waitlisted), pay extremely high taxes, and now am told that there is not enough room in the school to accommodate my child. Nothing left to do but wait and continue with daycare, so as I see it, the city should help cover that expense. What is unreasonable about that request? Seriously? Does anyone out there want to help me gather names and start a petition?[/quote] Before you get that credit, your child's name will be put on every waitlist at every DCPS or charter with PS3--in any ward, and no matter the school's focus or recent scores. If you turn down an open slot--any slot, anywhere--you lose all rights to that credit.[/quote]
