[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The fastest-growing area of the city for under-5 is Brightwood and upper Georgia Ave. Opening the new middle school at Coolidge in 2019 will open up seats at four education campuses for more ECE. [/quote]

Good point. Eliminating all the ECs will be very helpful. If you ask me, that's plenty planning for now. I don't want to have empty schools again. Would rather grow slowly. Pk3 is not a right.[/quote]

The issue is the cat is already out of the bag. Our neighborhood tipped a few years back. One year everyone got in, the next there was an IB WL of over 30.

I'd be in favor of a needs based PS 3 if that meant most kids could get in for PK4. I don't think DCPS understands the damage it is doing to its brand by not being proactive about this. [/quote]

It's a public school system, not a "brand." [/quote]

I respectfully disagree. DC is an education market place. DCPS is up against national brands like BASIS and KIPP and even local brands like Fairfax and Montgomery Counties. The best way to get people into DCPS middle and high schools is getting them into their neighborhood ESs. [/quote]
