So what happened to Amos -- and which school do you think the auditors will target next?

To listen to Scott Pearson tell it, he's ready to start demanding financial transparency, which'll be the death of several of the EOTP charters.

What then?

Because the Board has not yet shut them down. It has only initiated proceedings.


The Board will not shut them down but will give the facilities, along with currently enrolled kids to another operator. There is far too much many at stake for the charters voluntarily cede numbers like these.

Are there parents on here that can give more insight? We are new to DC and trying to figure out all the Lottery stuff and had thought about using them as one of our last lottery spots because we liked the Reggio style.

The vultures need to stop circulating. They have only started the proceeding to revoke the charter, they may well come back from the brink. It's happened before with other schools.


True. But most charter schools aren't RICO conspiracies.


Yes but a handful are (and most of those EOTR).
