[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I thought Hardy was going that route. They have Filmore on their campus. I know DCUM get squirlley when Hardy comes up but it makes sense to make Hardy a feeder school to Ellington. Other schools like Ballou, that have an acclaim marching band ( scholarship opportunity) or Eastern ( they had a decent choir) could benefit from having students already introduced to the arts. Even Wilson has high caliber stage productions could benefit from having young thespians. [/quote]

Hardy does, not Filmore though; that's an elementary program. Hardy has its own orchestras and every student has instrumental music. I'm not sure there is a charter school out there that matches it on this. Many of their teachers are also teaching in the DC Youth Orchestra, which is another great option to substitute or supplement music. And there is Savoy ES, where Pope transferred from Hardy. The "basic" music DCPS offers (certainly at the ES level) is really good to tell from our experience.[/quote]
