[quote=Anonymous]OP, go back to older Watkins threads.  This issue has been thrashed out on these boards many times in the last decade.  Size of Watkins (too big), the rise of language immersion charters up in NE, in-bound hostile leadership and strong buy in from Ward 7 and 8 parents have featured heavily in the story.  Despite frequent predictions that things would get better at Watkins for IB families, they only seem to get worse.[/quote]

The answer is one word is “Leadership”

They have had REALLY bad leaders for the last 8 years - and essentially they ruined the place [/quote]

How many seats did they offer when reopening after Covid?[/quote]

For my fourth grader - none - the entire fourth grade did not go back that whole year and the leaders of that school allowed that to happen - and so we left - end of our Watkins story and our families 8 year history at the cluster. [/quote]

Wasn't this the case at every DCPS school that year?[/quote]
