[quote=Anonymous]You all do remember that when Eastern was at their height of excellence the three major feeder schools were Jefferson, Sousa and Hines and the latter was a blue ribbon middle school in Ward 6 and was not part of the cluster.

Eastern's current population is reflecting what DCPS intended.  Let's be real they improved Eastern have it almost half full and it is without Ward 6 students.  The upcoming 2013 Easteen freshmen class has to accept Ward 5 former Spingarn population.   A large high-school with a cross section of students from all over the city is a political dream but it was DCPS plan.  That is why the joke is on Ward 6 they fought hard to keep Eastern in the Cap-Hill inventory but DCPS are not making it a priority to fill it with Cap-Hill children.  Bamboozling at its best.

Everyone is talking about improving Eliot-Hine to a prominent status.  Yet Friendship PCMS and Chavez PCMS are in Eastern's school boundary.  Those graduating 8th graders have their eyes on Eastern.[/quote]
