[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in the Bancroft boundary and it is hard to imagine that the school won't stay majority Latino. There are tons of large apartment buildings on 16th street that house a lot of immigrant families. And they far outnumber the rowhouses in the neighborhood.[/quote] This is true, but when thinking about feeder patterns Bancroft doesn’t bring much diversity to Deal. Many of of Latino families living in the apartments in 16th send their kids to CHEC which is literally across the street rather than 4 miles away. Others head to McFarland. Also, Bancroft is 4% African American. That is shocking for a Ward 1 school. Every Ward 3 school has a higher percentage except Oyster which is 3.7%. [/quote] Where do the black families IB for Bancroft go? To the English alternative DCPS? It’s not like there aren’t black families in the neighborhood. [/quote]
