Your argument doesn't make any sense. If I give up my IB spot, it opens up an opportunity for someone else to lottery into it. Not every school fits every kid, regardless of whether you are IB. And, the point of the lottery is that you shouldn't HAVE to go to your IB school. And finally, just because you like my IB school doesn't mean I do. You may think my IB is fabulous and find me selfish; others may think it sucks. Whose standards should we be applying to decide if it's "fair" to take a charter spot? The lottery is the lottery for everyone, period.


Just the kind of defensive answer I was expecting. I can't think of any charter in ward 3 (close to any of the JKLM) so even if someone got it, it doesn't mean it would be a manageable commute for them. I think it is fair to let the kids with a lot less desirable options than JKLM to take the charter spots, but you will not understand any of the reasons so I won't waste my breath. You do what you think is right I guess

Janney doesn't have PS3, though. It seems you couldn't have selected Janney for ps3 anyway, right?

The Special Ed program is fabulous at CMI. I know of JKLM families who chose CMI for that exact reason.

I'm interested whether anyone who lives IB for JKLM or the like (Ross, oyster, stoddert, etc) sends their child to a charter. Which one?
