[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is absolutely no discussion on Stokes students not feeding into DCI, so please stop the rumors. Stokes is looking ahead at middle school slots especially for the EE campus. Logistically, it would be very unlikely for kids to commute to DCI from EE and vice versa as it’s so far away. Frankly, other schools that feed into DCI should be looking at options as well.  Also, it’s funny to hear folks wanting to push out YY and Stokes French students from DCI...it wouldn’t be a very international school if it was only Spanish/English?[/quote]

Since when is speculating spreading rumors? And wow, your explanation sounds like straight up segregation. Creating a school just for the EE kids on the other side of the river is NOT a good look.[/quote]

Not PP. EE already is a separate school from Brookland, so I don't get your point about "segregation." This would just effectively extend EE from PK3-5 to PK3-8. Opening a brand-new middle school on-site so the kids can continue through middle school is a much better "look," in my opinion, than offering them spots at a campus that's 45+ minutes away in traffic. But it will be interesting to see how the preferences are handled between Brookland, EE, DCI, and the new middle school.[/quote]

No it’s NOT a good look to create a middle school just for the EE kids and not the Brookland kids too.  If Stokes is going to create a middle school, it should be for all their students not preferentially just for students at 1 campus.[/quote]
