[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You would need to close 2 or 3 Hill DCPS elementary schools to get where you want to go - not just LT but Payne and/or Miner!!

Everybody's just dreamin' on this thread.  Until the Mayor goes, the Chancellor goes, and Wells goes, the LT District parents have as much chance as feeding into SWS as into Janney.   And none of us has any chance of feeding into a stellar middle school program.  Plan accordingly because time and demographics won't fix these problems.

underenrolled?  you're mistaken -- the schools are enrolled, but some with significant out of bound populations -- notice only only 1 Ward 6 school hit by closures  and it's a special needs school. The % of oob students is a worthless stat tossed around freely by skeptics.  Some of the OOB are students with proximity fwiw.   Look at the IB by GRADE and you'll see the % pretty low for EC and early ES and increases with grade level.  The better Hill schools are retaining these students until they jump ship for MS.

There is absolutely no problem with enrolling Hill families -- it's retaining them where DCPS fails[/quote]
