[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Am I the only person considering transferring their child in light of how the school is handling this? I just read the following on Facebook, [Today, a special education teacher at Mundo Verde Public Charter School was trying to meet with a special needs student, as she does every day. She was denied access to her space, by our executive director, because the $3000/day (your tax dollars at work!) union buster Angel Cornejo is holding anti-union meetings in her room. This is after nearly 100 parents signed a letter demanding leadership expel this man, who is trying to sow discord and confusion ahead of our union vote on Wednesday. If that's not a clearer depiction of the administration's priorities (maintaining power, denying staff voices, preserving the broken status quo &gt; student services & learning) I don't know what is. Intimidation is illegal.][/quote]

We are leaving MV. We were already considering leaving and but this has made the decision easier.  We are in an upper grade so it will be hard for MV to fill our slot. If others do the same it could just be another challenge for the school to deal with next year (either the school will have a smaller budget or will have to integrate more new upper grade kids or will have larger classes in earlier grades).[/quote]

Im certain mundo will fill it with a 3rd grader who had a Spanish nanny when he was 2 and will “pick it up right away!”

Or maybe a 4th grader who wants that dci slot and doesn’t mind sacrificing two years of learning. [/quote]

Agree, no issues whatsoever with MV filling those few spots.  WL for upper grades, all with 0 spots before 5/1 deadline, high 30’s to 80 at an immersion school nonetheless.  People want to get in for DCI who don’t want to move from their EOTP homes.

Those upper grade families leaving, care to share with us where you are going?  My bet is private, moving to DEAL zone, or the burbs.[/quote]
