[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the key to reducing overcrowding in Deal/Wilson, and creating a very good middle school in the new Wells middle right of the bat, is the cohort of students at Lafayette, Bancroft, and Shepherd. Those three schools make a very well performing cohort (in terms of academics) of students. Push them over to Wells, and you've got a compelling new school. Take them out of Deal/Wilson, and the overcrowding problem is solved. I think it's a pretty good deal, from an outsider's perspective.[/quote] Bancroft is physically closer to MacFarland and as a bilingual school, it makes more sense for it to go there with all the other immersion programs. Oyster should also feed to MacFarland--by doing so, the Adams building will be freed up for elementary students, which in turn would allow more kids to be eligible for MacFarland. DCPS could use some of the extra space to add PK3 and additional PK4 seats at Oyster.[/quote]
