[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Could at-risk kids even physically make it to Janney? That population has legit transit issues. You can’t send a 2nd grader on the Metro or MetroBus alone in the AM.[/quote] Not your problem. Give them the choice at least. There were at-risk kids in schools throughout the Wilson feeder pattern for years. Only in the last decade has getting in OOB become virtually impossible. And people already send 2nd graders to school via Metro and bus now, usually in pairs or a group. I use the Silver Spring side of the red line every day and they are coming north. People from all parts of the city want their kids in a good school - we all try to get into schools as far north and west as we can. My IB isn’t great, but it is far better than many others. [/quote]
