[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Again reflecting DC's racial fears. The high schools are highly segregated, so the place for a new high school in DC is of course placed at the least accessible furthest corner of Georgetown.

Google Maps tells me if you get to the Anacostia Metro at 7:30 am, catch the Green Line then the D6, you can get to that location just before 9am.[/quote]

Just the bus from Dupont Circle takes 36 minutes. [/quote]
DC jumped on the space when it came available without any thought for how to use it.

Changing feeder so that it is a Hardy + lottery is very interesting and probably the easiest way to alleviate the overcrowding at Wilson.
Many families LOVE Hardy b/c it is smaller than Deal so it hits the sweet spot of a strong school with enough students to give it critical mass.

There definitely are challenges with this decision of which current public transportation is one - but tat can be discussed and changed.  [/quote]

Maybe they could do an express bus that hits Ellington and whatever this new HS is. [/quote]

For sure there needs to be a public transport infrastructure response to this.
