[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Having South Capitol Street be the border for Van Ness Elementary School and Amidon-Bowen benefits both schools. It allows Amidon-Bowen to retain a lot of in-bound kids, and it allows Van Ness Elementary to not become overcrowded as more and more new housing is built in the Capitol Riverfront.[/quote] Southwest now has a lot of kids who live in townhouses that used to be occupied by adults only, and I expect this trend will continue. Plus a lot of new housing will be built on the Southwest waterfront. In short, I don't think it's safe to assume that the child population of Southeast will grow at a higher rate than that of Southwest over the next several years.[/quote] Indeed, to the contrary, I think it may grow faster in SW than SE because I don't see that much of the new construction in SE slated to be family-sized, so I think the number of households with kids in SE is closer to stable than in SW.[/quote]
