[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Congrats on Beauvoir!  Our seven (pre-k to 5th) years at Key were great for us.  DC makes As but isn't top of class at Key.  Did well on SSAT (w/no prep, other than 6.5 years at Key).  We aren't interested in an all girls/boys school but applied DC to similarly ranked schools and DC was accepted w/no connections.  Very few (if any) Key kids are going to Hardy for 6th. [b] DC's outcome is the same for all of the classmates we know (who aren't moving to Deal district or Montgomery County). [/b]  I wouldn't trade those DCPS/Key years for anything.  In addition to being free, we're so glad DC had an opportunity to attend a public school, where there are great teachers and best of all, a super smart, caring, thoughtful, friendly, down-to-earth community.   Good luck in your decision making.

So, PP, some of DCs classmates will be moving to avoid Hardy ? I assume that means the parents are selling their home because the school of their choice placement for Middle School did not work out ? Isn't that what OP is trying to avoid ?[/quote]

Assumption is incorrect (along with the assumption that all Key families own homes).  With only 27 children (total for the two 5th grade classes), most of whom are going to private after Key, I don't feel that it's appropriate to discuss the reasons for other families' decisions not to attend private schools (though they seem pretty obvious once your assumption is ruled out).[/quote]
