[quote=Anonymous]My main issue is that the boundary changes don't address a BIG issue with DCPS...the preS-8 model is not evenly applied to all regions of the city. Are only low SES schools (other than OA) subjected to this model? Has any formal study been done to show if the middle-schoolers have higher scores in these schools than previously? I like the suggestion for a middle school at the bightwood school; reallocate kids to neighboring schools and re-establish a middle school in the mixed-SES area around military and 14th street. I am a parent whose inbound school is Brightwood. % blocks north of me, kids are zoned for shepherd and deal, 5 blocks south is also zoned for deal, yet I'm sitting in the middle, zoned for McFarland....I guess my block lacked political pull[/quote]
