[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also in the high school age group, DCPS is more heavily AA than in the younger grades, so it makes sense that Duke Ellington‘s population is more heavily black than DCPS as a whole. [/quote] Sure but........ DE is in Ward 3, which is mostly white. How come DE doesn't do a better job at engaging and recruiting its neighbours? And Hispanics are clearly underrepresented, while many live in NE, closer to the school than those in SE. Why the disparity?[/quote] Ellington in Ward 2, not 3. It's too bad that a new Ellington wasn't built in a more central, transit-accessible location in the District, maybe closer to a major theater (like Arena). Also the area west of Rock Creek Park could use another high school, given Wilson bursting at the seams. The present DE is the former Western HS, which would be ideal for another general high school.[/quote] Agreed.[/quote]
