Hundreds of excited kids packed into the new Dennis Dunkins Elementary School this weekend, pulling their parents along as they explored their new campus just days before the first day of class on Monday. “There have been 600 people coming through already,” said SaJade Miller, the superintendent of the new charter school in the Stop Six neighborhood, as he held up a balloon arch for parents to get through. “We’re excited.” The new Rocketship elementary school is on Berry Street, about a mile northwest of Christene C. Moss Elementary School, which received a D rating the last time the state gave accountability scores prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.
