[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]0 kids from the past 2 5th grades at Mann went to hardy.

-Mann parent[/quote]

2 kids from Key went to Hardy last year.

There honestly are a large number of parents from the Key district who would consider the Hardy-Wilson path as Hardy is on the upswing, but will not consider it if the path is, say, improving-Hardy-Cardozo.

As a Key parent, we bought on a wish that Hardy would continue on it's improving trajectory - but do feel for the Eaton parents who had their assumed pathway changed on them & they are now in the boat that Key/Mann/Hyde & Stoddert have been in for a long time.  (Understanding this is a different discussion than talking about #Eastof16thStreet issues vs. #Westof16thStreet issues).

Just FYI - the old Hardy school always seems like a nice solution, but until DCPS figures out a better solution for their special education care - taking away the contract from the Lab School, including their lease to the facilities - would basically bankrupt the entire system.  I personally don't get the 'no way Ellington can be moved' even with the 'powerhouse' of PCCafritz and the decision to renovate - given all the other unrest that's going on with boundaries and so forth (the kids there use the Jelleff Field (now often called the Ellington Field)).
