[quote=Anonymous]Sort of. Only Brent is retaining most high-SES kids to 4th grade and no Hill ES is doing it for 5th. If you ignore the preschool/free daycare population, LT, Payne and Miner can't even field majority IB kindergartens and many of the supposedly IB kids, or OOB with walking distance proximity, are PG County address cheaters with elderly relatives locally. The bona fide Hill middle-class cohort is spread too thin for a succesful neighborhood MS to emerge, even if a good one was attracting most IB families. In the big picture, SWS with a city-wide draw isn't going to help, although the Hill families who lottery in will surely like it, at least in the lower grades. When you consider how many affluent and higly educated families we have around here, paying serious taxes to the city, the school scene remains pathetic. [/quote]
