[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was just thinking--do you think Wilson is so big this because in part kids are coming back from the charters for high school? And these are kids who 5 years ago would I have never stayed in DC for elementary and middle?[/quote] No. The Wilson boundaries contain too many feeder schools. Look at the boundary map. Wilson’s geographic area is 2x or 3x the norm. [/quote] But the boundaries didn't change this year. Why did Wilson suddenly gain 200+ 9th graders?[/quote] Probably a number of reasons. Two emerging developments at Murch, Hearst, and Eaton are that the number of families living in McClean Gardens and the apartments along CT Avenue has skyrocketed. And, the number of embassy kids has also grown significantly. So the DCPS enrollment projections for these schools are way off. This could also partly explain Wilson. [/quote]
