[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If there is so much demand and it can't be scaled, how about HB2 - in the Ed Center?

This is really the question I have. If HB is popular, a lot of kids are being denied each year, why doesn't the County create a second program, styled on this success?[/quote]

Because they don't want to. It wouldn't be an elite program if more kids could access it. [/quote]

It's not an "elite" program now... Might be coveted, but it's not "elite"[/quote]

It was not designed to be elite, but that is what it's become, in addition to being coveted. It's like a charter school being paid for with public money. They refuse to meet all students' needs, so there are few ELL students, few who qualify for fr/l, and SpEd students are pushed out. Add in the capped enrollment and the fact that they're about to get an amazing new building in Rosslyn, I'm not sure how it can be considered anything other than elite. Don't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining. [/quote]
