[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Haven't we spent a decade changing law to reflect how impulsive developing young adult brains are? Or is that all hooey? Yeah, I agree that most of the kids are minding their own business and having fun, but for some young people "fun" doesn't always equal good behavior. Two massively over enrolled schools empty into the same space everyday and other young people come by to hang out as well. To not pay attention to that time and space does a disservice to the good tweens + teens. It's like leaving the door to the Peach Pit unlocked and stepping out. [/quote]

Deal is not massively over enrolled. It has what like 1200 students this year and trending down. Stop with the dramatics. With new High School and white people beginning to look more at Banneker, Wilson will be just fine, if not under enrolled in 5 years.[/quote]

I've been actually wondering if the new school will become the 'local' Wards 2/3 school and Wilson will just continue to be overenrolled with [b]kids from far flung feeders [/b](which is a weird model for a city that "believes" in neighborhood schools? What is the actual plan for who goes where?[/quote]

What does this mean? If schools feed into Deal then they are in the feeder pattern. I'm guessing what you meant was kids from "far away". You said the quiet part out loud. [/quote]

Eh, I think Hardy is pretty far from wilson.[/quote]

Wilson is the closest  high school by miles for some kids at Hardy, like those who live near Sibley hospital[/quote]
 
Georgetown to Cardozo is 2.7 miles. 
Georgetown to Wilson is 3.2 miles.

Guy Mason to Cardozo is 2.7 miles. Wilson is 2.4 miles.
Oyster Adams is 2.1 to Cardozo, 2.5 to Wilson. [/quote]

Fair point, but straight easy to travel miles? Cardozo is a beautiful building - if it's easier to get there they should go![/quote]
