[quote=Anonymous][quote=mcjd79][quote=Anonymous]As someone also in Brookland, we had many of your schools on our list but also added some good (better) DCPS like Bruce Monroe and even Langley. I see both of these on the upswing. Then you may also be able to get into Seaton, Garrison or even Cleveland over in Shaw area. These too are going to be not exactly "safety" but everything on your list requires a super number. They may be mainly full with IB but I think chances are higher. I understand disappointment with our local DCPS in this neighborhood, they really should be better by now.[/quote] If more 'new' higher SES families would go to their IB schools and invest in the community resources could come more quickly. There won't be great neighborhood choices until attention is drawn the needs of DCPS neighborhood schools and more funding. DC needs to spot opening charter schools and invest in neighborhood schools. Which is very long over due.[/quote] Not really. There are just not enough higher-SES families in the school system. Look at the DC-wide equity report. 87,000 students in DCPS and Charters combined 79.5% are economically disadvantaged http://learndc.org/schoolprofiles/view?s=dc#equityreport [/quote]
