[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"As far as the school question: the "best public schools" are a function of socioeconomic class. The poor are moving out of DC; in 10-15 years it'll be a largely upper-middle class enclave. The regional school picture will be radically different by that time. These trends are self-amplifying. " How does that help any of us who don't work in DC and have children in elementary school now? In 10 years, I can live anywhere.[/quote] Sure, and for those who've run out of time an options, moving out makes sense. But there are plenty of parents who have found an option that works for them. I always find it incredibly puzzling when parents pro-actively move out of the city. "We're moving out to the 'burbs with our three-year-old because there are no good DCPS middle-school options!" Seriously? Hell, why not just kill yourself because global climate change may make the planet uninhabitable?[/quote]
