[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ll let the early adapters turn around hardy and reassess. Problem is two fold though, I doubt the legacy kids using it as access to Wilson will go quietly which will further keep the majority of upper SES parents from utilizing it. Meaning the sooners won’t get the critical-mass of Ward 3 parents they hope for to dry up the OOB slots. Even if they started to tip the scales the impact to Wilson’s black population would be dramatic and I suspect the DC gov would quickly step in for optics. [/quote]

LOL.  The early adapters were at Hardy six or seven years ago - after they fired Principal Pope.  I know this because my child was one of about a half-dozen IB students who were there at the time.

To bring this thread full circle, Hardy has flipped at this point - it has reached critical mass of kids from feeder schools such that more and feeder school families are comfortable sending their kids there.  It has reached the tipping point in the cycle. [/quote]

This. The first comment above is so out of date. The classes are now 50%+ Eaton, 30%ish Stoddert, mix of Mann & Hyde, a little less Key = 90% of the 7th and 8th grade classes.  You're basically now sending your kid to a middle school extension of Eaton/Stoddert...[/quote]
