[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People talking about Marshall "gentrifying," as if it's in some kind of slum. What a joke. It's a perfectly good school in a perfectly safe and middle-class area.[/quote] When blacks are displaced by higher income whites in DC, you can call it gentrification, but not when lower middle class whites in Pimmit Hills are replaced with higher-income Indians and other immigrants. Got it. Marshall neighborhoods may not have been slums, but there were reasons why the school was consistently in the bottom half in FCPS in the 80s and 90s and sometimes even in the bottom third.[/quote] Don't the Indians dominate the TJ admissions and do well in education? Wouldn't that be a positive?[/quote]
