[quote=Anonymous]I really don't understand all of the people who think that DC couldn't have a TJ because of economies of scale and/or that posters are overestimating their own children's likely performance on test-in exams... My kid's private pre-preschool (on the Hill) probably has 1.75 Ivy league degrees per parental couple on average. Yes, some of these kids won't end up as high achieving as their parents; but most/many will. Yes, many of these people will flee the city; but they wouldn't if there was a TJ. I just don't believe for a second that a test-in program couldn't succeed here. There is *such* brain attraction. You don't need the numbers you would if you were talking about some random state with a random assortment of jobs. [/quote]
