Rhee Creates Commission on Enrollment Policy

September 19, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Meetings Canceled. DCPS Chancellor Rhee announced September 19, 2008 the formation of a commission to recommend changes to the current DCPS student enrollment policy to “improve every DC public school student’s access to high-quality neighborhood and citywide schools. Updating the enrollment policy will make it easier for parents to understand their options and simpler for parents to enroll their children in the most appropriate school available.”

Composed of staff of The Brookings Institution, The Urban Institute and the 21st Century School Fund, the commission’s recommendations are to be based on the standards of 1) excellence and equity, 2) choice and diversity, 3) clarity and predictability, and 4) safety and accessibility.
