[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Beware if you are planning to buy in the Janney district and make sure that you look only in American University Park proper.  Parents are concerned that Janney is going to be overcrowded, and it's more likely than not that the next boundary review will involve shrinkage at the periphery, especially to the south and east.[/quote]

OMG you have no idea.

All of the neighborhood ES are essentially at capacity.

There is a tiny slice of Janney that is slightly closer to Murch and there is another slice that is slightly closer to Mann (that is actually part of "AU Park Proper").

But neither Murch nor Mann have any slack in their enrollment.

You could move the very small part of Tenleytown that is zoned for Janney to Hearst but Hearst is accepting almost no OOB students anymore and is also at capacity and you'd be moving a small number of students so not really accomplishing much.

Doesn't matter anyhow - the enrollment/boundary questions that matter pertain to Deal & Wilson.  The ES are all big but not over capacity and all are similarly good schools.

Move some of Janney to Hearst and some of Hearst to Eaton.  Eaton still has a lot of OOB, which can be cut way back to realign and rebalance school enrollments in Ward 3 schools.[/quote]
