[quote=Anonymous]Again, changing the school boundaries in this city would almost cause a riot.  Look, didn't we go through trials and tribulation when they tried to change Ward 7 and 6 boundaries as it pertained to voting residents.  That didn't even involve one iota of a school boundary issue and all HELL broke lose.

Believe me, if you would like to attend Eastern then by all means make it your priority to come to the school.  Currently, Eastern has students from all of the quandrants in this city and that was the result of DCPS making Eastern a city-wide project for recruitment, relaunching and restoring.  I am not saying that Duddington is not wanted but it is not our dog in this fight. A school plays the hand that it is dealt.  So, don't make it so personal that a Eastern Booster doesn't want or does want Duddington,it is not all that serious.  We have to educate each and every child that has selected Eastern regardless of the DCUM prevalent issues of race, economics, neighborhoods and what-so ever else.

You have to understand the best is all of over this city and if any school of comprehensive stamina knows that theyhave to recruit from all over this city to remain prominent.  We are on-line to be an IB certified school that will serve our in-school boundary kids that are definitely worthy within Ward 6, 5 and 7.  It would never be my intentions to say that a child is not welcome to Eastern.  I will stand firm, that for those who don't want us for reasons beyond our control are probably the same ones we don't want for reasons that we can control.

TW just needs to stop talking out both sides of his neck when it comes to the schools within Ward 6.  [/quote]
