[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - those class sizes are huge!  30 kids in one classroom?  With 1 teacher and 1 aid I presume?  That sounds so large.  I can't recall how many kids were in my elementary classes growing up but there were two classes in each grade and I don't recall it being that many (non-DCPS school).  We would be starting in K not pk unfortunately (although I hear there is no guarantee that one would get in at the pk3/4 level).  Would prefer not to have my little one be the only non-white kid in the class and preferably not the only black kid in the class.  Don't know anything about Shepherd - I'll do some preliminary research.[/quote]

You may want to check out Van Ness Elementary School in the Capitol Riverfront.  There are literally thousands of new housing being build right now (Apartments and Condos), and Van Ness Elementary WILL be totally renovated for the upcoming 2016-2017 School Year.  The school will be serving PK3, PK4, K and 1st grade in 2016-2017.  I went to the open house and the Demographics were 50% white, 35% African-American, 10% hispanic, and 5% Asian.  [b]Also, the school is NOT a Title I school.[/b][/quote]

Really?  Does its profile on myschooldc need to be updated then?

I'm not sure why it's listing Van Ness as a Title I school, but the Head of School (during her presentation at the open house) clearly stated that the school was not a Title I school this year.[/quote]
