[quote=Anonymous]The Cluster hangs around the neck of each of its schools like an albatross, that's the problem. - Like it or not, but it is the very opposite of how DC's school system is now working, with choice not only at every transition (from ES to MS to HS) but every year. - For every Watkins parent complaining about a principal who has to invest time in Stuart-Hobson, you'll find at least one at Stuart-Hobson to complain in reverse. - With it all comes a legacy that many of today's educated families (white and black) don't identify with. - To follow one of OP's leads: do you really want your child at Peabody/Watkins for seven years just to reserve a seat at Stuart-Hobson? In hindsight, the Ward 6 middle school planning process was one huge missed opportunity to rethink all of Capitol Hill's schools, including that albatross.[/quote]
