A Different March Madness: The DCPS Lottery
Since last fall, I’ve been working on a new book about a year in the life of the DC public school system(s) — as seen primarily through two schools: one a brand-new charter school, the other a 90-year-old neighborhood school — so I was thrilled to hear that WAMU’s Kojo Nnamdi was dedicating a show to the DCPS lottery and various local parents’ reactions to it.
That show aired today. If you’re interested, you can listen here to my observations about the process as well as many other DC parents and representatives from DCPS.
