[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure why Capitol Hill families need a good middle school option any more than other families in the District? What an odd thing to say.[/quote] Why is that odd when NW has Deal and the Hill has Stuart-Hobson and Eliot-Hine? SH is shunned by 3/4 of the middle-class families whose elementary schools feed into it (leaving it 15% white), while EH is shunned by virtually all (no white kids), for good reason. E.g. SH just started teaching 8th grade algebra, which Deal teaches in 7th for students who can handle it. [/quote] So we're only worried about middle schools in white neighborhoods? You do realize that BASIS is a charter school and they take from all wards, right? Even the ones that don't have rich white kids? Upper NW and Capitol Hill are the only neighborhoods that matter?[/quote]
