[quote=Anonymous]Current fifth grade Mann families lobbying to get into Deal = totally invented story. I am IB Mann and have been part of the several 5th grade parents discussions on MS options. Our Principal has made clear from the beginning that Deal was not an option for us (unless we moved to the east side of Massachusetts Ave). All discussions about DCPS MSs have always focused on Hardy, and of a few well-defined and concerted requests to ask DCPS and Principal Pride. 25% of the current class are 6 kids, who are going to Hardy this year, but there's a couple of additional families who might has well. Plus there's families who left at the end of fourth grade, who are not happy with their current charter/private school, and who will turn to Hardy for 6th grade. For instance, tough academically happy with the charters they are attending, parents had underestimated the toll on the kids and on the family of the daily commute to, for instance, Latin (1 1/2 hour a day, with bus leaving from Tenleytown at 7:00 am) and now place a higher value on the neighborhod school. Anyone interested in Hardy as sixth grade option for next year,and would like a parent-to-parent exchange, can send an email to parentsforhardy@gmail.com. Personal signed emails will be answered with personal/signed replies, so that All can be sure we are no trolls. [/quote]
