[quote=Anonymous]I was wondering what it meant when people asked if a person had "walking distance preference" to a certain school since I hadn't seen this defined before. If walking distance preference really is 1500 ft in each direction, then it would be a fairly high SES area of the Hill (with lots of families with babies right now) and overlap with the current IB areas of both Maury and Peabody, and also some kids now districted into Miner and LT. It would go one or two blocks across FL Ave in one direction, but would really be centered on the NE side of the Hill proper. So, while it would impact the LT catchment, it would actually cover kids IB to quite a few school and still not include all LT kids. This might make it easier to sell to DCPS because it would not completely disrupt IB populations at just one school and kids IB to Maury and Peabody might very well not choose SWS over their IB choice.
