With good leadership, turning around EH or Jefferson could be done easily![/quote] It is not an issue of turning around EH and/or Jefferson, which will take many years to accomplish. Capitol Hill is balkanized with three underperforming middle schools and charters that provide a viable alternative for high SES families. You cannot fix the middle school issue without first fixing underperforming feeder elementaries. Also, most of these same parents view Eastern as a bridge too far. There needs to be a holistic approach in order to keep most IB families in Capitol Hill schools past fourth grade. Sorry if that scares other Ward 6 parents but the current system is broken and thus does not afford high quality educational opportunities to all.[/quote]
