[quote=Anonymous]If DC does this right - unlikely - we'll do a boundary review every 10 years or so (my estimate of how often would be good). In 10 years Deal will be full and a new renovation will be taking place to add capacity. A new middle school will be in place in Ward 4 and a new one will be on the way. I see that situation as a toss up from a technocratic perspective. The political perspective is that Shepherd's community is the most-wired/highest socioeconomic status African-American community in DC, which even in 10 years will still be dominated politically by African-Americans. Shepherd families will get what they want. And unless something dramatic happens in Ward 4 on quality/attractiveness to higher-income African-American families, they will want to send their children to Deal. So that's a speculative analysis, a long way of telling you "very likely yes, Shepherd will continue to feed to Deal."[/quote]
