[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] First of all, there is no Takoma Park middle. It's an "education campus" (PK - 8th, with all the lack of specialization that entails). Second, it's under-enrolled, and even more so the higher the grade you go up. NOT a school to emulate. Middle class parents in Tacoma Park do not send their children there.[/quote] Huh? [b]Takoma Park Middle School for grades 6-8 is on Piney Branch Rd., has around 850 students.[/b] The school houses the TPMS math/science magnet admitting 100 kids a year, around 16% of applicants from across MoCo. The school as a whole is around 1/3 white, 1/4 black, 1/5 Asian, nearly 1/5 Hispanic. The magnet is nearly 1/2 Asian. We're looking at moving to Takoma Park to join Ivy League friends who send their children. [/quote] That school is in Montgomery County, not DC. Not an option for DCPS families, and not a model for Kaya and DCPS. [/quote]
