[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]38% school is out of boundary. Just eliminate that and I guarantee you’ll see crime decrease in tenley.

Sorry but it needs to be said.

If that won’t happen, there should be cops all over Tenley for a year the nip it in the butt. [/quote]

Better yet, if an out of boundary student commits a major infraction then s/he should be removed from the OOB school and sent back to the on-boundary school.  And to proceed from one feeder division to the next, the student should maintain at least a C average.  The privilege of attending an OOB school shouldn’t be wasted on troublemakers and lazy slackers.[/quote]

And what is the appropriate proportional punishment for in-bounds students? Or is the assumption just that no one who lives in the neighborhoods in bounds for these schools would ever (shudder) get a C?[/quote]

Under the residency based school system which DC has, an in bounds student has to be accommodated at the school for which he or she is zoned.  If the student’s behavior is criminal, of course, then the student can be sent to juvenile hall or prison regardless. If residence.  An out of boundary student attends the OOB school as a privilege so if the student is disruptive then the student should be sent back to the assigned school and free up the spot for a student who is motivated to make the most of the opportunity.[/quote]
