[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're trying to decide whether to buy a (hopefully, long-term) house in upper NW DC or Bethesda or Chevy Chase, MD. I hear good things about the elementary schools and Deal, but we're not sure about Wilson. Does anyone have insight on what changes may or may not come in the coming years?[/quote] This is the $64,000 question. DCPS is almost out of gimmicks to allow unfettered access to the Wilson pipeline within the next 5 years it should be at least 75% IB which should greatly transform the school. And tough decision remains on which IB ES needs to get reassigned. It remains to be seen how DCPS will react to this trend. But, many parents of younger kids who live close to Wilson intend to fight this out. [/quote] I agree. And local parents are much more active now and in many ways have the means to try to influence the process. Having said that, although things have changed somewhat, the power center of D.C. politics still doesn't reside in the areas around Wilson. Honestly, it will be fascinating to see how this plays out.[/quote]
