[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DCPS Fail. Right?? Is it possible they knew this fiasco would occur?[/quote] This is a feature, not a bug. The Mayor and Paul Kihn want in-boundary Wilson students to flee to other options: private’s, charters, or magnets in the far flung parts of the District. They know poor kids from Wards 6-8 will continue to make the trek to Wilson regardless of over-crowding, so no need to worry about them - their families are grateful for a Wilson seat. The over-crowding is a desired effect. This Mayor wants to break geography based by-right attendance. It will be her legacy.[/quote] As a parent with children in-boundary for Wilson, I would rather see the availability of self-study and virtual classrooms, and have them show up in person after school for sports and art clubs. Heck, that should be available as an option at most high schools, and for us would be a much better option than getting up an hour early to be shipped off to some half-baked souffle across town.[/quote]
