[quote=Anonymous]Mount Pleasant / Bancroft, try to get PREK4 into Communikids not far from there.

The Hill is lovely to live for this time but immersion is lacking.

Powell — looks nice on paper but it’s way more complicated in real life. (White parents are mostly happy for early elementary and want to leave by 2nd/3rd grade…UMC black parents go private from the get go…other black students are either not happy at Powell or go to the neighborhood non language  alternative Height…the school is Spanish immersion bc the population is overwhelmingly Spanish speaking and mostly lower income). Bancroft just lost its title 1 status so they’ll lose some money but it tells you a lot about the demographics there as compared to Powell. Bancroft also has a great feed also in the odd event you end up staying longer. Your money might get you where you need to go on rent. But that budget is tough for DC for a fam of 4.

If you were staying in DC the answer is Oyster but the budget for rent is tough in that area. [/quote]
