[quote=Anonymous]The core problem of DCPS is that staffing is so strictly tied to enrollment. They don't lead with staffing for classes when students haven't already shown up. This doesn't adequately take school choice into account. So while there's a chicken and egg question here, we've got DCPS saying on record through its budgets, "no way we're supplying the chickens before the eggs get here." And then some charters and selective schools have these offerings baked in. And DCPS wonders why they struggle to draw people to neighborhood MS. Deliver staffing on your promised expanded options (don't give these principals enrollment based budgets that keep requiring chopping Algebra teachers, minor world languages, humanities classes, etc. that only help a minority of students) that help you compete with charters and selective schools and you'll get better capture at schools like Brookland, MacFarland, Eliot-Hine, etc.[/quote]
