[quote=Anonymous]The best opportunity seemed to be to relocate the Duke Ellington school (to Roosevelt even?) and have a closer location for the students who would be coming from Hardy - but given that renovation is now about to start & is has an emphasis on the arts focus of the mission, that seems like a painfully bad lost opportunity.  
It's also a shame that the redistricting of having more Eaton & Oyster  etc  also come to Hardy could mean nearly all of Hardy could be IB in just a couple years - which would quickly get closer to a "Deal for All" - it's about half the size of Deal -- smaller middle schools can be highly preferable.
Key School families would have to go more than 5 miles to get to either Roosevelt or Cardozo during rush hour traffic vs. around 2 to get to Wilson -- so that sounds untenable (right now extremely few Key School kids go to Hardy as it is - having been shut out of the Deal boundary for years)   
P.S. As a DC-native, changing the name of a school like Roosevelt would cause riots - it has too deep history and roots in the city.  [/quote]
