[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]TPMS and Blair both have a ton of kids- not in magnet programs - across all racial and SES groups, that are college bound and motivated in school.[/quote]

It's just just TPMS but TPMS is probably the richest of the DCC schools although SSI also pulls from some pretty well off areas.[/quote]

Meant it's not JUST TPMS. All the DCC schools have a group of highly motivated and smart students across racial and SES groups.[/quote]

Yes, of course. PP here - I only have experience at TPMS and Blair. I wonder if it's true that TPMS is the richest of the DCC middle schools - sure Takoma Park has a lot of very expensive houses but we also have a lot of low income apartments. Wonder how it all balances out.[/quote]

They sent some of the poorest areas to (like flower Ave and long branch to a different school SSIMS [/quote]

For the sake of clarity, those neighborhoods are zoned to Rolling Terrace because they are closer to that elementary school and proximity matters, particularly when an elementary school is also serving as a hub for social services.

Rolling Terrace articulates to SSIMS because it is a dual language immersion program, and that instruction can be continued at the middle school level at ssims.[/quote]
