[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So the bar would be set high, and some would not clear it. And this is worse than what we have in Jefferson as our by-right middle school, and what we will almost certainly have indefinitely mainly because DCPS won't allow Maury, Brent, Watkins and SWS to feed to one middle school? As a Boston Latin graduate, I can't see that. If I'm going to be pushed to the burbs, absolutely yes, I'd much rather be pushed both by bad lottery luck and one or more children who couldn't clear the hurdle. My friends in NYC and Boston seem much less inclined to hit the road for the burbs than my DC friends, and everybody in the public system in those cities must apply to middle schools. With a middle school bar to clear, the system steps up and provides good support to advanced learners in elementary school. [/quote] The NY system is horrible. It is a terrible thing to do to young kids.[/quote]
