[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But up until what grade does their charter allow? And through what grade will they admit new students? If SELA is successful, undoubtedly families with Hebrew speaking kids in the upper elementary grades will move to DC in the coming years and want to attend. Will they be able to? [/quote] It looks like the school received a charter for pre-K-5, which means if they want to expand after 5th grade, they need to get permission from the city, like many schools - MV, LAMB, etc. From their website, it sounds like they will be adding a year every year, so in year two they will have 2nd grade, etc. The issue with later grades has come up before with YY, and I believe that the city has a rule that you can't treat fluent speakers different than non fluent speakers, and thus YY doesn't admit kids to upper grades, or they would have to admit non-fluent speakers, too.
