[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would say Whittier for sure. Really strong principal, engaged teachers, strong community buy-in. People who teach in DCPS schools describe it as a gem most people don’t know about.[/quote] Whittier really is such a gem. Engaged PTA, and off the chart retention rates for teachers, which is hard to do in DCPS. Pre-COVID they had double digit increases in PARCC scores for math and ELA too. The building is old and crummy though.[/quote] PP again and ugh I know. The old building and the plan for the swing space when they renovate in a few years are the only reasons I hesitate on the school. DCPS is doing them dirty with a really far swing space and there are some big ramifications for that that I just can’t stomach for my kid’s early elementary education.[/quote]
