[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's just not what I expected at all. One of my neighbors and friends has been advocating for the neighborhood families to consider Bruce Monroe and telling us she'd send her son there when it's his time, and it just seemed insane, based on the test scores, but after spending time there, I just don't see anything wrong with the school. All the teachers I've seen seem to have it together, be dynamic and working hard to good for the ESL population, but they also seem enthusiastic and welcoming to English-speaking middle/high SES families, unlike what I've heard about other schools in transitioning neighborhoods. This is going to sound obvious and ridiculous, but the current kids at the PK and K level just look like sweet kids and not social cases, and I can't imagine that sharing a classroom with them would do any damage to my kid. My kid will just be a little more lost on Spanish days than they are on English days, and in a couple of years they'll all speak both languages.[/quote]

A lot like my experience visiting Powell - and now DC is a student there.  I hope you enjoy your neighborhood school![/quote]
