[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It looks like DCPS is rolling the dice again on a middle school. Are there reasons to think it will succeed or not? I for one am unfortunately a skeptic. I expect it will have demographics like Cardozo, not Ross, and as a result will do no better than Cardozo at attracting DCUM families. Demographics seem to always trump everything here. What have you heard?[/quote] My demographic prediction -- Euclid will be between 0 and 15 percent upper middle class. Ross is like 95% UMC, while the other Francis feeders are anywhere between 10 and 30 percent UMC, so that explains the mix there. None of the the Euclid feeders exceed 30 percent UMC (maybe Garrison will just slightly?), and some portion of those kids will peel off to Latin, BASIS, other DCPS schools and privates. So, will Euclid have critical mass for challenging classes? [/quote]
