[quote=Anonymous]Not a current parent, but live in bounds. The school has been preK to 8 for the 10 years that I have lived in Takoma DC. The current principal came 3 or 4 years ago, and there has been a lot more interest from the inbounds community. But primarily in the preS/ PreK grade levels. Looking at the DC Cas scores, the tested population is ~75% AA, 25% hispanic, no white kids in those levels. It is a Title 1 school, majority FARMS. If I had a PreS student now, I would strongly consider this school. I would probably also apply out every year, and see if I could get my child into a nearby charter (e.g., LAMB, Cap City coming to Ward 4, YY not that far, EL Haynes possibly tho I might prefer Haynes to TEC). I have not seen neighborhood interest in the upper primary / middle school grades. I have read DCUM for a couple years and never seen a post from a parent of a child in these grades.[/quote]
