[quote=Anonymous]My DC did not care about the lack of lockers. This was not a priority in the decision making to accept the admission offer. We wanted a small, urban, centrally located, and high performing DC public high school. Walls fits all these criteria. Its location is perfect and easily accessible, with a short walking distance to the metro for commuting. It is beautifully nested within GWU, and the top 15 students can pursue an AA degree with GWU. Plus the penguin. 
Also, I do not know about the long history of Walls administration, but this constant complaining about the principal from other posters does not seem to align with our current experience. The principal, assistant principal, and grade counselor do communicate consistently about the ongoing issues. 
And yes, the principal does the hiring, but it is not as simple to remove a teacher!
For the prospective parents/students, pick a school that aligns with your values, priorities, and what really matters to you the most. There will be compromises. We love Walls![/quote]
