[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So Mary Cheh is grilling Chancellor Henderson about the huge numbers of new homeless children who will be coming in to Stoddert. It seems the line is that they will overwhelm the school because it is an attractive place to attend. But how many children per grade could we really be talking about here? How many new families are being allowed to buy homes and have children in the Stoddert attendance zone? And most interesting to me, don't we have a deal that buses military kids from JBAB deep in SE/SW to Stoddert so they can't be forced to integrate with their ghetto neighbors? Couldn't we dial back the numbers who participate in that program so that we can prioritize DC's homeless over a shameless anti-integration busing program?[/quote] No such program happening for military anymore - they have to enter OOB lottery like anyone else. There is a charter idea in works to serve that community which is an interesting idea. [/quote]
