[quote=Anonymous]Stokes hands down. We have friends whose children go there and in addition to speaking French they get lots of good club opportunities i.e. chess etc. The drive is not that bad taking Harewood or Irving over to NE. Invested parents, DCI track, it is a solid choice. We were inbound for Powell and opted for Barnard. At the time 3 years ago the school had terrible test scores although the demographics were similar to Barnard. The gentrifiers are moving up out of Columbia Heights/Adams Morgan, but like Bancroft in Mount Pleasant the school performance lags newcomers expectations considering how much they spent on housing. I wish the very best for Powell don't get me wrong. But Stokes is a safer bet.[/quote]
