[quote=Anonymous] The renovation plans for Ellington - with significant private investment will make it a performing arts center, not just a high school. The extra space is going to dance studios, rehearsal rooms with specially-built acoustics, exhibit space, auditoriums and performance halls. It's not just that the students are mostly AA, it's that the school is a school for performing arts. That's what it's meant to be, and there's no other performing arts school anywhere that's also a neighborhood school. Demand that of this one really is repellant. I don't have the codefordc link that shows the dearth of kids attending DCPS from that part of town, but it's proof that building a new high school there doesn't make sense. If you want to keep Wilson for WOTP families then put some effort behind other options EOTP where a good percentage of Wilson students live and where projections show that the population if school-aged kids is growing.
