[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you can afford to send any future children to private school, I would say its a great choice for all of the pros stated by others.  However, for the last 20 years people have said that the middle and high schools on the Hill are improving and will be an option.  Nope.  Until a sizable # of Hill families send their children to SH, Jefferson, Eliot-Hine and Eastern, it will never happen.  Middle and high school will be a reality for your family sooner than you realize and when the choice has to be made, not enough families are choosing their in-bound options.  Not a criticism, just an unbiased observation.  [/quote]

I’m new to Capitol Hill. Have the elementary schools such as Brent, Maury and LT been highly regarded for the last 20 years? Was Maury a top DC elementary school 20 years ago? I don’t doubt your observations. Just curious about the histories of the elementary schools. [/quote]

I've been here 17 years. Brent has been good a while. Maury has been solid for 10-12 years or more, LT took a little longer, but a larger number of families are hanging in there at LT and those families are now at SH. Before you all attack me, I'm estimating based on what I saw when I moved here and have observed with a 10 year old and an 8 year old. [/quote]

Got it. Thanks for replying. We are inbound for LT and hope to snag a pk spot next year. We also have a baby. Hope to also send them to SH. [/quote]
