[quote=Anonymous]To respond to the previous two posts - I agree, there are more families who are attending the neighborhood middle schools, some because they struck out, but a good number because they are choosing to go. It will be interesting in a few years how that translates to enrollment high schools, not just Eastern, but other DCPS high schools (besides SWW). Regarding parents trying to 'be the change', I think there is an additional category of parents that have chosen to stay in their public schools. As somebody who has also lived in the neighborhood for 20 years, there has always been conversation on here, MOTH, or casual conversations about the assumed age after which you had to try to lottery out from various schools/grades. More and more parents I have met have not gone in with a 'change the world' attitude, but a 'my kid is learning/challenged/happy, if it isn't broken don't fix it' mentality, and stayed in their original school longer than anticipated.[/quote]
