[quote=Anonymous]There were many factors being considered for the re-launching of Eastern.  During the planning period for Eastern many of us who were in attendance, were constantly informed that the neighborhood was "changing."  Which took on a mind of its own, regarding the definition.  Many took it as diversity was among the elementary and middle-schools and therefore it will reach Eastern too.  In a sense there was this expectation that the inaugural freshmen class would have a diverse population of which was heavily forcasted by all of the DCPS hiearchy.  Unfortunately, someone forgot to tell the diverse population that they were all expected.  The end result was that whites still feel that Eastern is not prepared enough for their child[ren] and that is fine with me.  But do not make it a negative for those who selected Eastern as their high-school choice.  No you shouldn't have any regrets but please be fair when assessing us and don't just disregard us becuase we're not diverse.[/quote]
