So, we went to the open house tonight. We are going to put the kids name in the lottery.
There the drawbacks you'd expect from a small charter school (no band/orchestra, not really any sports teams) but they have lots of cool clubs (robotics, science, math league that I forget the name of, and so on). They have a GT program that's just a once a week pull out, but they do in class differentiation, as well per-subject acceleration. Plus, K-11 (they will go to 11 this next year, then 12 the next) are all in one building, so there's no concern about maxing out of the elm building or the like.
We did find out there is another one that will be opening in FtW, but we didnt hear where. We are going to check on that one as well. Apparently it's much easier to get into a new one than an existing one.
