[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How can J-R take this crew opportunity away from SWW kids all of a sudden? Our daughter was counting on going to SWW and starting on the J-R crew team after training all year. J-R rows as a scholastic team and many of the regattas changed the definition of a school from a district- like DCPS - to an actual single school. So the Walls kids were increasingly unable to row in the biggest regattas. So J-R decided to make the team only for J-R students going forward. (It used to be open to any DCPS high schooler) It’s too bad because now only kids who live in the wealthiest part of the city can access a sport that provides college recruitment opportunities. There are club teams outside of school though.[/quote]
