[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nice how you bolded that one sentence and ignored the rest of the statement about them being completely incompetent (or flat out breaking the law) when it comes to managing residency fraud or following wait-list requirements.

I would consider "highly successful" charters to be those that are lauded, follow the rules, and produce results. Many of which are spoken about on this board and that have to take their students to public playgrounds or don't have the space to accommodate the hundreds of children on their wait lists, which they follow under the common lottery. Unlike Bethune.

What's in it for you PP?  Are you at the school?

Very happy at my DCPS BTW. [/quote]

PP you responded to and just getting back to DCUM and this nonsense. Nope. My kid is not at Bethune. My kid was at one of the schools that is often lauded about on these boards. And yet I still moved him because it was not as great as many of you cream about. There is nothing in it for me, but how do you define lauded? Who are the judges for determining success? What are the standards?  I agree that Bethune and all the other schools including the Stokes and Lambs should be apart of the common lottery.  But so many of them are not. They should be forced, but only the charter board can make that demand and not OSSE. Are you accusing all the schools that are not members of the common lottery as cheats, or are you selective in your accusations? How would you know about Bethune's competencies if you have not been privy to the inner-workings of the school, or had/have children in attendance? Do you know the demographics of the school? How do you define success for a high farm population? In regards to the school's failure to follow the rules, you should send all evidence to both OSSE and PCSB. Otherwise, you come across as someone who has a personal ax to grind against the school spinning defaming accusations. [/quote]
