[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not really satisfied with this answer and I've seen this question raised on Moth and ignored. A 9-block square in that neck of the woods would fill a class right? and really make,it an expensive square to buy in wouldnt it? I think i remember from other posts that the way they give it now at maury or tyler is a big square, much bigger than 9-blocks.  Preference seems to put these people to the front of a long line ahead of all other people in ward 6 that want a spot.  Not sure that is reasonable or why they deserve it? [/quote]

They don't "deserve" it.  They can want anything they want, but wanting isn't getting.  The only people who really have a reason to be upset about SWS being city-wide are the people who were inbounds for the Cluster, IMO.  They lost SWS.  The people who just happened to live next to a school where SWS ultimately ended up-- why should they be entitled to this program?  Because they own expensive houses?

If DCPS does give proximity preference for SWS, I for one will be extremely pissed off.[/quote]

Same here, and I'm an SWS parent who might be within the proximity boundary. There is absolutely no sensible reason to grant proximity preference, and many reasons not to. It would be awesome for the real estate values of the few people living in that boundary. Crazy.[/quote]
