[quote=Anonymous]A couple of years ago there was a thread asking why Stoddert, a fantastic school, was considered a notch below JKLM.  It seems like the reason was the combination of two factors: a) cohort / ses diversity (partly explained by the type of housing stock vis-a-vis wealthier upper nwdc); and b) Hardy.  For example, Key feeds to Hardy but has a higher share of high ses.  Or Murch is as diverse as Stoddert, but feeds into Deal.  Interesting, Stoddert is now ranked above Murch, fwiw.

Now, if Hardy becomes as good as Deal, then the "disadvantage" posited by "b)" above will disappear.  If Stoddert is already at or above Murch, then Hardy becoming as good as Deal will definitely make it be at the same league as JKLM -- which might make Glover Park an even more desirable neighborhood than it already is.

I am aware that these taxonomy is arbitrary and, to some degree, absurd, but I am just curious if we should already be talking about JKLMMS already -- for what it's worth.[/quote]
