[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Big picture perspectives needed here. When your public middle school has a dozen trailers, triple lunch shifts and absurdly crowded hallways, ending OOB feeder rights starts to seem reasonable. Michelle Rhee introduced these rights just a decade back for political reasons. Placing in-boundary preference on a par with OOB feeder elementary or middle school preference is not in fact a longstanding DC tradition. [/quote] Attending a school outside one's boundary is, in fact, a longstanding DC tradition. Before the last 20 years' of population growth, lotteries and waitlists, and upper middle-class families who live IB for Wilson deciding to attend their inbound school.... all a yone who wanted to attend a school outside their neighborhood would go and ask to enroll. Those with connections to the principal or front office staff would usually get in. [/quote]
