[quote=Anonymous]Several goals:

Send Bancroft and Oyster to MacFarland and Roosevelt (probably moving Roosevelt STAY to a different location to free up space)
. 
Make Adams additional bilingual elementary space.

End middle school at Francis-Stevens and send all kids who are zoned for there and Cardozo MS to Cardozo.

End middle school at CHML and if DCPS insists on having Montessori middle, put it at Brookland MS as a special wing with kids from CHML, Langdon, Langley, and Nalle having preference.

Shift parts of Maury's boundary to Miner and Payne; shift some of Brent to Tyler.

End the policy that if you get into a school OOB you can continue in the feeder pattern through 12th grade. You should be allowed to attend through the terminal grade of the school. Similarly, clarify the policies for people who move out of boundary to say if they move elsewhere in the District they can stay through the end of the school year, but after that they can only return if they get a seat through the lottery.

Less certain on this, but consider choice sets of bilingual and non-bilingual elementary schools where the boundary is combined and parents can express a preference. But you only get the destination middle and high school of the school you go to, so if you pick bilingual you get MacFarland and Roosevelt. I'd start with one of Hearst/Powell, Eaton/Bancroft, and Brent/Tyler.[/quote]
