[quote=Anonymous]When property values in DC have shown growth that few metro areas have seen, I seriously doubt that DC leaders will purposely create the political career-ending firestorm that would ensue if they remove neighborhoods from the boundaries for good schools (Deal; Wilson). If DCPS is serious about its mantra of continuity for families I have to also believe they must grandfather in children (and their siblings) who are already attending a certain feeder pattern, which will take years to accomplish. Whatever this Board comes back with next year in its report, if it does intend to make serious changes that plan better also include a well defined plan for building a new middle school or two that will be attractive enough to families to make them forget how mad they are that they got boundaried out of Deal. We are not in-boundary for Deal so I don't have a dog in this fight. My feeder school is Hardy, which I still hold out hope for. [/quote]
