[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The pp who mentioned the regional pull of Ellington has a good point. Maryland and Virginia have schools with advanced academic programs but Ellington is unique in the area so of course it attracts OOS students. And they’re below their 10% cap. And probably those OOS students who beat out a DC student for admission were just plain better. So if you have a problem with this, contact your city government. ~mom of a former white DC Ellington student [/quote] So this should be the deal: DC will only admit some MD and VA students to Ellington if VA takes a certain number of DC students into TJ high school and DCstidents get access to MoCo’s top magnet. Otherwise we’re just suckers.[/quote]
