[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FACT:  Brent kids don't leave by the "dozens" starting in Third Grade.  IIRC, one rising Third Grader transferred to CHDS with a younger sibling over the summer and several families moved out of the area.  Two or three rising Fourth Graders transferred to Eaton two years ago and other families have left as tbe result of State Department or military postings.

FACT:  Brent is projecting that few rising Fourth Graders will be departing and, for this reason, will be adding another Fourth Grade classroom next year.

FACT:  A majority of IB families leave after Fourth Grade, principally due to the lack of a viable middle school option, but alot can change in 6-7 years, as evidenced by Brent itself.  Students at Mann and other WotP schools also choose not to attend Hardy.

PP seems to know very little about Brent from her far away perch in Ward 4.  One day she may appreciate that schools are much more than the sum of DC-CAS scores.[/quote]

Aren't we defensive? I am not the ward 4 poster. I would much prefer my kid to attend Hardy than any hill middle school. [/quote]

SH and Hardy -- roughly same Farm %.  Hardy slightly more OOB. Hardy scores slightly better but roughly the same along demographic lines.   Biggest difference is # of AA kids if that's a problem for you[/quote]
