Plus Latin and Basis solve two problems with one solution by providing a path through HS (I suspect that hurts Two Rivers more than any academic shortcomings).  That's appealing to many Hill families given that Wilson is a tough draw OOB and SWW is highly sought after.  Despite having time on our side I'm not terribly optimistic about the prospects for Eastern.  There's always private, parochial or moving as well.[/quote]

With enough involved parents thinking like that, you can be sure neighborhood DCPS middle and high schools will soon die out, except for the lucky folks in ward 3.  For them the dying period will take longer.[/quote]

Frankly, it is the school's job to improve itself and [b]not[/b] the parents' job.

I am tired of hearing that it is the parents' job to make things all better at schools when it is up to the schools to provide safe classrooms and schools and to provide a content-rich curricula that provides mastery of core foundational knowledge and skills. Schools often fail to do this in DC.[/quote]
