[quote=Anonymous]I, quite frankly, lay this issue at the feet of DCPS. For years, they used OOB as an escape valve for pent up demand for high quality education in other neighborhoods. Rather than doing the hard work of creating quality schools throughout the district, they sat back and let motivated parents cluster into just a few schools. To me, it is absolutely crazy that high-SES neighborhoods such as 16th Street Heights and Crestwood don't have their own high quality options. Why is Shepherd only 28% in bounds? It's a great little school in a great neighborhood. It's an embarrassment that AA and other minority students still have to travel to predominantly white neighborhoods for a quality education.
