[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Congrats to her.

And I would imagine this cements the fact that Shepherd won't be losing its Deal feed anytime soon (jk - needed to make it relevant to this board).

You aren't wrong.  this makes me feel more sure about shepard park too![/quote]

She’ll be a great mom.  But this kills any chance of meaningful changes to fix Deal/Wilson overcrowding while she is still Mayor.  Sigh. [/quote]

I know you want to block the 40 (mostly brown) kids that come from Shepherd elementary each year, but cutting Shepherd will not result in a meaningful change.[/quote]

Do you believe that they will remain only 40 a year, and, for that matter, mostly "brown", as the current and future PK classes advance towards Deal/Wilson, considering SP's changing demographics and increasing popularity of the school?[/quote]
Do you know the neighborhood? The school? Look at the PK and K classes now. White kids are a significant minority. The neighborhood is so small, with so many multi-generational families that you're not going to see demographics change dramatically - there simply isn't enough turnover for that to happen. Slow transition to increased white population (like the rest of the District) - sure...but that impact won't be hitting Deal/Wilson in this decade.[/quote]
