[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's socioeconomic too.  Many of you do not seem to realize that there is a large contingent of high SES AA families that opt out of DCPS and charters after ES and go private.  [/quote]
So true!  Most of my high SES AA friends, relatives, and myself included opt out of DCPS period.  We all send our children to private schools.   [/quote]

Not even Wilson?[/quote]

Np here, my sister and I went to Bullis. [/quote]

I'm the earlier PP that mentioned that many of the middle/upper SES AAs I know are at charters and privates.  It seems that Shepherd and possibly Cleveland may be the only DCPS elementaries w/relatively high numbers of middle/high SES AAs.  I know there's a sprinkling at JKLMs and other schools, but not large numbers.

Any others?  (I haven't been in DC very long.) [/quote]

I'm the poster who went to Bullis, we lived in Takoma area of DC and after we finished Takoma Education Campus we both went on to Bullis. Some neighbors kids went to St. John's or Carroll.

Coolidge was not an option even back in then for the majority of the higher SES AA families.[/quote]
