[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not about putting the good schools in ward 7. There are great teachers and principals in ward 7. It's about the demographics about the people that will send their kid to a school in Ward 7. So your battle should not be about using an election year to demand a better school in Ward 7, but to rally your neighbors to send your kid to the school that already exists. Same issue with Brookland schools, or even Hardy. Plenty of rich folk to fill the infrastructure in place, just not enough willing participants.[/quote] Ward 8 resident here who sent my kids to school on the Hill.  I agree with this post.  I think it starts with the people in the neighborhood.  OP, you talk about families with the same values, educational and professional levels looking for someone to make elementary schools stronger. I think that someone is you and those families.  Someone has to be willing to be the first, to start the ball rolling.  You and the like-minded people in your neighborhood should enroll your kids in your local neighborhood school and become involved, volunteer and remain active in the school community.  That's how change starts.[/quote]
