The charters typically take their cues from DCPS on things like this so expect most if not all to follow the guidelines announced this morning.


It's too bad. This is when autonomy and the ability to be creative (e.g., outdoor class) might really matter.


Why are parents so insistent on outdoor classrooms being the answer? Many of our schools don’t have extensive outdoor space. In addition, they need to have indoor space as a backup for weather so outdoor classrooms don’t actually solve anything.

There's a list on the PCSB website.


this is OP. I know about the existing announcements. just trying to read the tea leaves about whether any hybrid will actually happen if DCPS is not doing it at all


OP DCPS is unlikely to do hybrid until March, the warmer season was our best shot. The experts could be wrong and maybe winter won’t be so bad but everything points to no in person.
Also depends on if we can get our presidential leadership to shift to someone who didn’t think the virus was a hoax.


HAAAAA! "presidential leadership"?!!!! Good one

I think they will struggle but if they are small, they stand a better chance.

We are at a charter school that had previously announced its intention to host students for a hybrid model. Are other folks at charters anticipating that their schools will follow the DCPS decision for 100% DL? I have a feeling the answer is yes....
