[quote=Anonymous]I'd add Duke Ellington (if your kid has an arts interest - and arts is not just performance art, we know someone who got in for creative writing and museum studies, for example) to the list of acceptable high schools.  It's very competitive.

in terms of ten years out, I'd maybe consider Roosevelt as possibly improving in 10 years.  The Math PARCC scores are depressing, and ELA is bad but not quite as depressing (if you add in a 3 score).

The school was renovated recently and is beautiful inside, but is half empty.  It's in a neighborhood that has gentrified a lot.  I think DCPS is feeling some pressure to see a return on that renovation investment, so if they add some programs, who knows.  There's also an outside chance that schools might get pulled out of the Deal/WIlson feeder and if that happens the schools would likely feed Rosevelt (revisiting feeders in 2023). McKinley Tech would be the other to tech.

If you save 200K on a house EOTP, you might then have 200K to spend on private high school - the catholic schools might still be affordable, so you could think about St Johns, too.  [/quote]
