[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]move O-A, Shepherd to another MS and HS.  only murch, lafayette and janney should feed to deal and wilson.  Cut the feeding for out of bounds after elementary and have them reapply for open spots.  [/quote]

Short version of this post: keep brown and black people out of Wilson.

And only this will relieve racist anxieties that are the main trigger for NW whites to flee for the burbs.[/quote]

What’s your solution?[/quote]

NP.  Here’s the best solution:

1.  Have all of the DCPS Spanish immersion elementary schools, EXCEPT Oyster-Adams, feed to MacFarland MS, and then Roosevelt HS;
2.  Leave Oyster-Adams alone as a Pk to 8th school; and
3.  Keep Oyster-Adams’ name out of your mouth.[/quote]

If that's your solution you are acting only out of self-interest, not a desire to keep a Latino population at Wilson, because you're all too happy to throw Bancroft (75% black and Latino) out of Wilson as long as your school (63% black and Latino) gets your desired feeder pattern. Maybe the compromise is keep your precious Adams and then send it to Roosevelt. That would help with Wilson overcrowding and have no effect on Deal. And Adams is closer to Roosevelt than to Wilson anyway. [/quote]
