Given the option of Oyster-Adams or Deal for middle school, which would Bancroft IB parents pick?[/quote]

I think most middle class families would pick Deal but would settle for Oyster-Adams. Parents are starting to talk about this. (By the way, many of the most involved, higher SES families at Bancroft are OOB--from Columbia Heights, Crestwood, etc.)

As for the previous post, which I believe is from OP, it's hard to know where to begin, you are so ignorant about the school. [b]You obviously have not been to a single PTA meeting[/b] or talked to any parents with a few years in at Bancroft or done anything to try to learn about what's going on (or you would know what the "visioning" is, for example). I too wish the principal coffees were earlier, but in case you haven't noticed, the cafeteria and gym are full of students until 9 am and that's where such events are usually held.

Please do whatever you need to do to sit down with the principal or assistant principal and talk about your concerns. Arrange to get work at 10:30 so you can go to a coffee. Or ask for a one on one meeting. Go to a PTA meeting (the board meeting, which is 2nd Tuesday of every month at 6 pm in the library) or an LSAT meeting (monthly, 1st Tuesday at 5:30 pm--both are on the Google calendar on the web site).

Get a clue.

"Get a clue?"  hey, the 80s called...they want their lame cliche back. If PTA meeting notices are sent out only in Spanish, why should English speaking parents go? I would expect the meeting to be run in Spanish.
