[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, if you're still reading, I have a modest suggestion for you. Dive into US census data for Cap Hill NE, even though it's almost a decade old now. Also, tour the north Hill and look around. Stuart Hobson is DCPS' #3 performing middle school, after Deal #1 and Hardy #2. Yet SH's student body is around 14% white in a school catchment area that's roughly 80% white. Five years ago, SH's student body was 12% white. What does this tell you? Have IB UMC parents falling over themselves to enroll since Hobson's spectacular $40 million renovated four years ago? No, they're mostly rushing off to BASIS, a school with really crappy facilities. [/quote] Same thing with all the money spent on the other low performing middle and high schools EOTP. Not drawing any UMC families. For the overwhelming majority of families, academics always trumps facilities. [/quote]
