[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good question. Apparently, a decade is long enough for any particular Hill DCPS ES to flip IF it's not Watkins. Watkins is effectively owned by parents living in Wards 5, 7 and 8, many of them city employees. Lots of these parents attended Watkins, see it as their by-right school, and won't let go of their grasp. Looks like it will take a generation for this to change. [/quote] Isn't it kind of artificial to talk about attempts to flip Watkins decades ago, though? I mean the entire situation in the City was different back then. Rather than look at the pace of change over the last 30 years, doesn't make more sense to look at the pace over the last one or two years? Which shows a pace of change just as fast as at Brent when it was "flipping"?? [/quote]
