[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is exactly why we chose Palisades over AU Park. I’d much rather be at Key (tiny, two classes or three classes per grade) than a school as large as Janney. There just are not the resources to get a handle on a school that big. [/quote] Key has its issues. The lower grades are usually great, but things get very uneven after that. A lot of the richer families - and talented kids who can secure aid from privates - peel off after 3rd or 4th, which reduces class sizes but also morale. As with everything else in DCPS, Hardy is good until it isn’t. There are some incredible teachers there, but turnover is high. The principal this year has been much better about ensuring that teachers are quickly replaced when they leave, but last year was a total shitshow in that respect.[/quote]
