[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would say that compared with Janney/Murch/Lafayette, a far smaller percentage of neighborhood kids go to Mann. This matters only because the neighborhood factor is one of the massive plusses of DCPS public schools. When kids can spill out of their houses into their friends' backyards, you walk down the block and know everyone, and the school is the community meeting point for the neighborhood. It's not to say that kids at Mann don't have neighborhood friends, but just that there's a real magic that happens when you have a community experience like a neighborhood elementary school everyone attends. [/quote] Sure. THats true. But the plus side is that the school isn't overcrowded and theres the two neighborhoods it draws from are so small that there are plenty of community. [/quote]
