[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Correction ----  I live near Stanton Park and now my in-bounds elementary school is Watkins, which is far away and [b]has a lot of troubled students.[/b] SWS should have a boundary that includes Stanton Park, or else Ludlow's boundary should move SOUTH to include Stanton (or Maury move west to include Stanton).[/quote]

Curious how you know/discern this? Watkins does have high OOB and a significant FARMS. Is that what you are equating with troubled? It is a large elementary school, I think largest in Ward 6. But that of itself doesn't shed any light on why you perceive it as having troubled kids. I am in-bounds and a long-time Peabody/SWS (when it was in the Cluster) and Watkins parent. FWIW, Watkins white students have some of the highest achievement in DC-CAS in the city. Again, if you are drawing conclusions just from the racial/SES make-up of the school. And many OOB are actually Hill kids.

No, Tyler is the largest in Ward 6. [/quote]
