You seem incredibly knowledgeable about real estate and real estate development. You should start a school!

Sounds like a decent deal to me given DC real estate.

Wait a minute! You discovered that being in a better location is more expensive. That's quite the revelation. Also, Latin is cost sharing with YY. Still think a building that costs 1/2 to 1/3 for Latin is less good deal?

Small school on 2nd street without good facilities, shut out from sports, and not many extracurricular offerings does not make it like a small private school. The scores for the school is also mediocre.

If this is one of the best middle/high school options EOTP then it’s sadly lacking. I’m shocked that parents are desperate enough to go there to stay in the city.

We plan on going to the DCI open house and will see how that goes. If not well, then will go private or move to the burbs.

Honestly, you should have left already PP.

Don't waste your time. (DCI parent)
