[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd just like Deal for Ward 6 with all ESes currently feeding to SH, EH or Jefferson feeding into it. It could be split across 2 of the existing properties by grade level. (I, personally, think SH and EH would make the most sense, but I understand the case for Jefferson over EH.) I think LOTS of parents would support this and it would only take ~5 years for it to be very comparable to Deal.[/quote]

This has been floated before but the Cluster contingent will never let us touch SH.  So, it would have to be a pan-Ward 6 middle school that would feed SWS, Maury, Brent, Payne, Miner, Tyler, Van Ness, Amidon-Bowen, Seaton, Walker-Jones.  Apparently either Jefferson or E-H would be big enough.  I think to make it happen they'd have to have a "fresh start" and be prepared to offer advanced programming from the beginning, perhaps based on everyone with PARCC scores in the 4s and 5s. [/quote]

I'd be OK with that too. I'd rather get Watkins + LT + JO Wilson too (and I think, ultimately, those schools would regret opting out b/c SH is only "OK" even by DC crappy standards), but it could work with those listed above. I'd also put in CHML for those who want to opt out for Montessori middle school, but that might be picking an unnecessary fight.[/quote]
