[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]The crisis is that with the OOB feeder system, there's no place to put the ever-growing population of students who all have rights to attend the same TWO schools. [/quote] DCPS will cross that bridge when they get to it.[/quote] Which is what they are trying to do....[/quote] Agreed, deal is way above capcity and the incoming numbers are only growing through its 7 feeder schools and areas outside those feeders that have attendance rights. Do we really want a middle school with 1600 students? Where is the tipping point where quality falls off. They are doing a gray job with 300 a grade, what is the tipping point. That is the crisis. Families in the feeders as recent as 4 years ago did not rountiny send their kids to deal in large numbers (90% +), they now all do and the elementaries are bursting at the seams. Janey had 3 5th grade classes next year and will have 4 this year. There are 5 classes of second graders coming through the ranks.[/quote]
