But for whatever reason lots of Ellington boosters think the school needs to be in Georgetown despite the lack of links to any nearby performing arts institutions or students from Georgetown.[/quote]

Let it go. That ship has sailed and the school would have to be totally re-renovated to work

Please.  It would work just fine as a normal high school.  Go over to Potomac and Bethesda and take a look at the incredibly awesome arts and music programs those cats have in their public high schools.

Getting creative with ideas, Ellington could easily become a city-wide, noncompetitive enrollment high school with competitive applications solely for after-school arts and music classes and clubs.[/quote]

That doesn't solve the demographic growth problem.  They need their own school.  Closing Western High and just assuming that that entire part of the city was gonna be oldies and elitists forever was incredibly short sighted.[/quote]
