[quote=Anonymous]I agree that losing the Wilson boundary was a blow. But there is still the option of going to Jefferson then applying to Banneker, SWW, Ellington, or McKinley Tech (plus charters, private, or moving). The scores are basically the same as Stuart-Hobson's. It's true that many families don't want their kid to be the only. But I think there are a couple families that are willing to try it (and may have already tried it at the feeder schools). And there are some families that won't be the only, but will go to a school that's 10% white (see: Stuart-Hobson). Also, there are hundreds of market-rate 2-4 bedroom townhouses in SW. I've seen several turn over in recent years from older couples to recently married people or families with little kids. They won't all stay. But I think some will.[/quote]
