[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in a neighborhood that is zoned for Churchill/Cooper/Langley that is walking distance to Cooper and Langley. Roughly 75% of the kids in the neighborhood go to private schools, not the ones they're zoned for. Just something to be aware of when you're looking at the homes in some of these areas, if this matters to you. Maybe try to pick a time when you can check out the bus drop offs or something. [/quote] The problems at Cooper Middle school are the reason people go private. [/quote] Not in my experience. (I'm the PP) The kids in my neighborhood, including mine, started private at K and stayed that way. I have no idea if there are issues at Cooper, but everyone I do know who had kids there seemed very happy with it. YMMV of course.[/quote] Um, I think you meant to say you were a PP up-thread? I am the PP. In any event: - there was a really lengthy DCUMAD thread on Cooper which alleged there were problems there, but if you find it, CHECK THE DATE. Things can change radically in just a few years. It is a good neighborhood so I can’t imagine there are that many problems there (caveat: mine went to Longfellow, which is a great school). Another plus for Cooper: it is undergoing a much-needed renovation and will be essentially new when your kid starts in the fall.[/quote]
