[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Aaarrrggghh! It WAS a neighborhood school -- that's why the Hill parents are upset![/quote] [b]It wasn't a "school" at all; it was a PK4-K (1?) program within Peabody (hence the name). Just a couple of classrooms. That's it. DCPS is now expanding it to include PS3 and go up to 5 and making it its own school[/b]. [/quote] Exactly right. It was only PK4 and K classrooms that were one part of the early childhood campus (Peabody) in the Cluster. Both SWS and Peabody K classes were intended to feed to Watkins 1st. That's why it had in-bounds. Last year was the anomaly: SWS retained the Cluster boundaries for the transition but at the same time starting their expansion to having a separate 1st grade. Both SWS and CHM are remnants from the pre-charter days. They can't be an in-bounds school of right for its immediate catchment because it would share that boundary with another existing school (mostly LT). [/quote]
