[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes and this is why the Cluster-centered opposition to Two Rivers opening long ago is relevant. There was a lawsuit very ugly that was thrown out of court as baseless. The legacy continues with CHPSPO opposition to middle school charters that may threaten the Cluster school. But here is the thing. Two Rivers thrived and SO DID Brent and Tyler came on and Maury and.... ALL SINCE Two Rivers opened.

Excellence breeds excellence. Families who see educational paths in the city then stay in the city and create....more educational paths.  More people stay etc etc. Meanwhile, families who previously had no choice except their own, often terrible, neighborhood school also have more and better choices. MORE disadvantaged kids are getting better educations than ever before.

Create excellent options for middle school ( charter or DCPS ) and more families see a path through high school, more disadvantaged kids get a decent middle school education and it builds.  It is complete nonsense to try and force families into sub par options when they have the option to do other things. Focus on getting rid of the sub par, not the excellent.

CHPSPO fights charters based on the fact they are anti-charter. Washington Global could have been the best charter school and they would be against it on principal.  They just are against charters.  See the letter they wrote to Scott Pearson. [/quote]
