Turn one of 'em into a test-in magnet school with an IB track and a bunch of APs, and it wouldn't be.  Walls turns away hundreds of applicants every year who would love to have another similar option, for example.  DCPS just won't do it.[/quote]

DCPS already has six test-in schools. Except for Walls and Ellington there isn't real competition for spots. More test-in schools isn't the answer.[/quote]

Don't be silly.  Name the test-in schools that you think are so great.  As I stated originally, the degree of academic rigor at the school (Walls being the one that fits the bill) is what makes it desirable.[/quote]

I'm not saying they're great, I'm saying there are six of them. Hard to make the case for another.[/quote]

If you replicate Walls, you're only going to suck high-performing students out of the remaining DCPS (and Charters, about half the kids applying come from charters).[/quote]
