[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This "plan" seems crazy. Isn't one a magnet school requiring academic testing to get it, and the other a neighborhood school with very few in-boundary kids in attendance. I know FS attracts a lot in the PS because it is one of the very few such programs in the area, but how is there retention rate? Are the projected demographics change in Foggy Bottom sufficient to justify this as a neighhborhood middle school? [/quote] Basically, F-S is low attended because it is NOT a magnet school, like its new sister school Walls. A lot of the kids are dropped off at F-S because their parents work nearby; otherwise, not much of a draw to send your kids there.[/quote]
