[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We did SH and are now at Banneker. No regrets. But I know folks have real issues with SH. [/quote]

No regrets because your kid got into Banneker! [/quote]

Pretty much everyone from the DCUM kids crew at SH this year got into Walls, Banneker or Duke. Most got their first choice of those. The minority who didn’t seemed to share a 7th grade English teacher, so choose wisely.[/quote]

No, this is not true based on data given.

If you assume Walls is 5 kids for the <10, and count Banneker and Duke, that is only 26% of the class go into application high school.

This is based on the assumption that you even want your kid to go to all 3 schools which is a very, very small number of families if any.

If you just look at Walls and Banneker for kids from SH, it’s about only 14%.  Again based on the assumption that families want both schools which some don’t. These numbers are not good. [/quote]

Data is from SY24-25. Presumably this person is talking about SY25-26 admissions.[/quote]

And you think 1 year is going to make any significant difference and it still won’t be less than 10 kids to Walls out of about 150 kids?

Best case scenario with 9 kids, that is 6%.  Worst case with 2 it’s like 1%[/quote]
