[quote=Anonymous]PP, search for Capitol Hill Cluster (or just "cluster") on DCUM threads, along with "Watkins" to find a wealth of insightful posts in the last two or three years. Watkins is improving and attracting a few more in-boundary parents for 1st grade every year. But, unfortunately, it's leadership and staff situation has been tumultuous for years. The harsh reality is that the school loses 10-15% of its in-boundary parents and upper middle-class parents every year between 1st and 2nd, 2nd and 3rd, 3rd and 4th and then a good third between 4th and 5th every year. Many Watkins parents try to lottery into Maury, Capitol Hill Montessori, SWS, Brent and a variety of charters in NE, particularly Two Rivers (with campuses on the north and east sides of Cap Hill).[/quote]
