[quote=Anonymous]For the white parents perplexed by Banneker . . . ¯\_(?)_/¯ The biggest knock on Banneker this white parent has heard has nothing to do with demographics, culture, or academic rigor -- it's mostly about the facility limitations -- small size for HS, dated, in poor condition. and long overdue for major improvement. The move to Shaw will create more high quality seats and address Euclid site limitations. it will also be more Metro accessible for a city wide school. With seats at SWW at a premium and few OOB opportunities for Wilson, Banneker's expansion and new facility is a welcomed development. I'm appalled at how the Mayor has unnecessarily pitted Banneker against the Shaw community, but the Banneker development is a welcomed development to many DC families looking at a range of quality magnet options.[/quote]
