[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Last year we only applied to MV because while we were happy at our HR DCPS, we couldn't get over the immersion fantasy, and MV was the only school that worked for our commute. We got in, and I had pretty much already decided to enroll my kids when we attended the enrollment event. I was completely underwhelmed by the grotty facilities and seeming lack of organization to the event, and I was irritated by the woman who told me that my pay stub was too old (not her fault, I know). We still proceeded with enrollment, though with more misgivings than before. I am so glad we did because both of my children have had the most incredible experience at the school -- and that's even without any outdoor space on the grounds. The building is beautiful, the facilities and fantastic, and most of all the staff -- everyone has been just incredible helping my kids transition to immersion (which was very difficult for my older one). Not to sound like a kool-aid drinker, but every single day I wake up feeling lucky that my kids have such a fantastic place to spend their days. FWIW.[/quote]
It's worth quite a bit to us because we feel the same way. We are new to the school this year and have had an incredible year. It's all luck getting in to any school you like but it's all work making the school bear fruit and thrive. My kids are so engaged and so joyful about learning. We are still growing and I feel like the good can always get better. Its true...new charters are not for the faint of heart. Luckily we are in it for the long haul and hoping for the best from our efforts. [/quote]
