[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ward 4 mother? Ward 4 father? Are you the same people saying the same thing over and over again?  please make your neighborhood school better on your own, don't count on Shepherd to make your school better. I will not send my kid to new north or Coolidge and many parents from SES I talked too will not, so trying to change SES feeder hoping that we will all come improve YOUR school is a lost of time.

This. Another SP parent here, and my kids aren't going to New North or Coolidge. I'm not up for a a start up school even in the best case scenario, and Coolidge is a disaster with no chance of turning around by the time we need it. Middle and High schools take eons to turn around, and the horizon is measured in decades, not 5-8 years. It takes a long time to turn around elementary schools, which isn't nearly as difficult. We left our old neighborhood to move IB for Deal and Wilson. For us, it would be charter school (not sure if I want to go that route even if we could get in) or more likely move to the suburbs. If we lose Deal and Wilson then I'll probably just give up on DC for failing my family with schools yet again.[/quote]
