[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If I was doing it again, I would focus my search on Hearst because it's a smaller community that appears (from conversations with friends) to be friendlier. -parent of Lafayette grads.[/quote] I would argue that Lafayette parents have earned a reputation for being very demanding, both of DCPS as a whole and of the Lafayette administration, to the point where they become quite unpleasant (obvs not talking about PP here). You can easily find examples of this if you go back and look at threads dealing with boundary revisions and PK4 space. Its supporters will argue that this is just a small (but very, very vocal) subset of parents at an extremely large school, but there seem to be more such people at Lafayette than the other schools on your list.
