[quote=Anonymous]I don't agree. The ed picture just isn't as black and white as you paint it. City demographics continue to shift, and gentrification remains a powerful force for change. Mayor Bowser won't be in office forever. The ed landscape you describe may have been accurate a decade back, but I'm not convinced that that DCPS and the city council members no longer give a whit about keeping high SES families in traditional public schools after elementary school. If high SES retention in DCPS middle and high schools was irrelevant politically, DCPS wouldn't be planning to open a 2nd high school in Ward 3 within the next few years, mainly to relieve crowding at Wilson. Once the new HS opens, some CH families will join Hardy families there, via the OOB lottery.[/quote]
