[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This school should have been closed. Charters will never allow these neighbors to have neighborhood schools, that much is clear.[/quote]

This is an idiotic comment.  I'm not sure what "these neighborhoods" mean, but the townhomes in the Garrison district are between $1 and $2 million (typically in the high $1s).  And look at Ross next door -- a thriving school.  [/quote]

Here's some logic:

Most parents and guardians in Ward 1 send their children to charters. It's true if you look at enrollment percentages.

Ward 1 neighbors Ward 2. A map reveals this to also be true.

Most of the parents and guardians in Ward 1 share adjacent blame for the struggling Ward 2 Garrison. A leap, I know.

Ward 2 has one charter (BASIS DC) and might be even more to blame, given its presence in Ward 2 (the very same ward as Garrison's and on the very same yellow and green lines).

Ward 5 and 6 must also take some blame since they are nearby Garrison too.
