[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Playing the lottery is not elitist. Believing that a title 1 school could never possibly be any good is. I hear a lot of the only middle schools in DC that are any good at all and should ever be considered are Deal, Hardy, Latin, Basis, and DCI.[/quote] My kids went to a Title 1 elementary school. It was fine. But you look at the middle and high school options, and they become a lot narrower and harder to justify if your kid is at or above grade level and you want a school that's targeted toward meeting their academic needs. You might also think several more DCPS middle schools are fine, but the high schools they feed to aren't. If you can pay for private or move if your kid doesn't get into a selective admissions high school that's ok, but not everyone wants that or can. [/quote]
