[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The[b] DCI "innovation" is mostly to get around the charter board's insistence that there be no testing in options.[/b]  The majority of students will be from their feeders whose main entry yr will be as 3/4 yr olds.  It'll be interesting how many students DCI actually takes for 6, 7, 8, and 9th grades through their open lottery. Probably very few if any.  They don't want to have a lot of students who need remediation in English nevermind know another language.[/quote]

That's not a true statement. The desire was to provide a middle and high school through 12th grade without the worry of enduring another lottery.  LAMB, DC Bilingual and Stokes did not have middle school options prior to DCI. [/quote]

That, and the desire to continue the languages.  But any/all of the feeder schools could have asked to expand their charters, but attrition is exactly the reason each school can't do it on their own.  Hence DCI.[/quote]

But the children from the feeder schools are not required to continue with their respective languages. It will be a choice on the students' parts. [/quote]

It said in the proposal for DCI that was presented to the charter board that the kids are required to continue with the language from their feeder.[/quote]
