[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I also attend our IB DCPS-- but the above posting is ridic.  It just isn't an option for all DC residents to attend a great IB school regardless of willingness to "make some financial sacrifices".  there just isn't enough housing in those limited areas.[/quote]
I agree, but there are about 100 apartments available for rent to make your kid IB in West of the park.And that just around 2 schools.It's limited, but not full,far from it.And please don't start with your not all can afford blah-blah-blah.I make 48k and live here.
It is about choices.[/quote]

I make $38k maybe a few K more with OT. I could never afford to live wotp.  I envy those that can.  Even if everyone could make it work as you suggest, how much do you think Janney and Deal could accommodate?  That kind of thinking makes no sense to me and is quite disheartening to hear.  [/quote]
My tenant who works at grocery store lives WofP.I makes under 30k.[/quote]

Exception, not the norm.  You show me one place available for a family that takes home $1875 per month.  I am so sick of hearing these stories.  I'm not saying it doesn't happen (rare studios etc), but the entire point is #1 there is not enough inventory for EVERYONE with kids to love WOTP, and #2 even if there were, how could the 5 decent schools accommodate them all?  Stupidity exists no matter the income or education level.  Ugh![/quote]
Ugh, then don't take 100 of your closest friends with you and stop complaining that you can't.You haven't even tried to get an apartment here but willing to complain since not all fit.WTh![/quote]

why should someone even have to try to get an apartment WOTP?  Shouldn't they be allowed to expect that their child can receive a good education regardless of where they live in the city?  [/quote]
