[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly: Just how much better is Whitman than Walter Johnson ("WJ"):

1) academically, 
2) sports-wise, 
3) aesthetically (campus, buildings, neighborhood)
4) "the arts"
5) college placement
6) student happiness
7) teachers who care[/quote]

They're pretty similar on all those counts. In fact, you're just splitting hairs. So pick the school for whichever community appeals to you r family more.[/quote]

Good to know.  Homes in the Whitman district (literally a few blocks away from similar/identical homes in the WJ district are notably more expensive so it made me think... [/quote]

One of the reason is WJ rezoning. Whitman is also part of boundary change, but only small change is possible there.  WJ may become part of DCC or simply take 2 elementary schools from DCC. A much larger change is possible in WJ.[/quote]

Oh please with the DCC.

The home pricing difference existed 15 years ago when we considered new very similar new construction builds within blocks of each other north and south of Greentree Rd.     This is not a new rezoning phenomenon that that pp would have you believe.   Many of our immediate neighbors go to private school and pay $$$ for their homes.    [/quote]
