[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It would jump start the process to make Eaton and Oyster into Hardy feeders, since they're closer to Hardy than Deal anyway.

Mann is closer to Deal than it is to Hardy, yet it feeds Hardy.  Eaton and Oyster should too.[/quote]

Again, it is actually much harder for students living near the Woodley Park or Cleveland Park stations to get to Hardy than it is for them to simply jump on a train and hop out a couple of minutes later at Tenleytown. Please keep in mind that middle school kids will not be delivered by minivan!![/quote]

This is why they made all the buses free for students.  DCPS baby steps.  Plus such a small number of IB students from those two neighborhoods go to their IB elementary.  Highly unlikely they are going to Deal so this point is pretty much moot.  Now we are talking about non-WP/CP families getting to Hardy vs. Deal.  I bet DCPS doesn't see much difference in that.[/quote]

which takes out any of diversity from deal, so I think YES DCPS and others see some difference in that. The entire city will not be happy if Deal is just made whiter and whiter.[/quote]

The "entire city" is getting whiter and whiter.[/quote]

Should OA stop getting the option for Deal? That seems like a stretch geographically and they already have a middle school.[/quote]
