[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think a lot of different things are going on here.  For the Maury community, the Maury Miner proposal dredged up a lot of really complicated stuff.  For some people in the upper grades right now at Maury, opposing the merger but being all in on EH is how they have personally responded.  That said, my child attends EH and I have been pleasantly surprised by how mostly good it is.  If you go digging for flaws, you will find them.  But, if you live in Hill East, it is a real choice worth considering.  The range of very different opinions (loud and quiet) about EH at Maury in the upper grades right now might just illustrate that the needle has moved some and the reputation of the school is in flux.  I think Payne is actually the main feeder right now, but you might over the next few years see an uptick in students enrolling from Maury.[/quote]

Since SY21-22 Maury has consistently sent 27-33 students to EH. They sent the most students of any school in SY21-22, SY22-23, and SY23-24. Last year Payne sent two more than Maury did.[/quote]

Part of that is just that Payne was one of the fastest growing schools in the city over the last 2-3 years. Its test scores are also on a massive upwards trajectory, which is great for EH and all feeders.[/quote]

What is the reason for the trajectory?[/quote]

Overall increase in number of students living in the boundary (from 394 in SY19-20 to 465 in SY24-25) and fewer students lotterying out to other schools (boundary participation rate went from 37% in SY19-20 to 50% in SY24-25).

Before 2019 there was a sizeable contingent of homeless children who lived at DC General/were IB for Payne.[/quote]

Wow, congrats![/quote]
