There are a wide range of students there and opportunities both academically, and obviously artistically.
If your child intends (as much as any kid that young knows) to pursue arts in college then Ellington has strong relationships and networks. Colleges at all levels seek out Ellington kids.
It is also the most affordable option, even considering that you'd have to pay tuition.
OP here. Thank you, that is good to know. I only started looking today have called to ask for a tour, so I guess I will find out more soon, but a couple of things that I found seem bizarre to me. For example, US News,
thttps://www.usnews.com/education/best-high-schools/district-of-columbia/districts/district-of-columbia-public-schools/ellington-school-of-the-arts-4638, which seems to suggest that there are only 5 full time teachers. Which must mean that others are adjunct? And I couldn't find anything on the school website about any specific teachers. Just raises some questions in my head...
