[quote=Anonymous]I'm a Latin family in-bounds for Deal/Wilson. We did Latin for middle and are staying on for HS. I love that Latin reaches children from all quadrants of the city. That being said, I am thrilled to have strong neighborhood schools in Deal/Wilson, pleased by the rehabbed buildings, and am glad that these schools also reach a high proportion of children from outside the immediate neighborhood ( though that will lessen as neighborhood interest rises and slots fill up). The more strong DCPS and charter schools in the city--the better for all of'our children. Public and public charter schools can co-exist, and not at the expense of one another. Why don't we form partnerships and friendly rivalries such as the independents have? To me, that would be the way to go. I am frankly impressed by aspects of Deal like their well-polished debate team. Latin could learn from that. I am sure that since Latin and Deal come up SO often in the same breath, the admin of Deal might like to see what Latin offers. I think it is great though if they ultimately have two strongly distinct, but meritorious programs. That only broadens choice on the city scene.[/quote]
