[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Make Stuart Hobson the MS Magnet as an interim step to getting all the selfish idiots on capitol hill to  attend their neighborhood school so we can have another Wilson pyramid by now[/quote]

There aren't nearly enough educated families on Cap Hill to make another Wilson. The other problem is that part of DC gets Sketchy before you even leave CH let alone all the areas around it.  There is a reason privates and charters will always be the solution there. Little elementary schools are one thing, high schools are a complete different beast [/quote]

I don't think you could make another Wilson but if all of the Cap Hill families stayed home I think you would have a HS that would be very attractive to most families in the district. Again, the issue is MS. Why Ward 3 has 2 MS and Ward 6 has 3 will always be a mystery to me.[/quote]

And Ward 4 has none. [/quote]

Ward 3 parents argued during the redistricting meetings that Ward 4 should be kicked out of Deal and Wilson and get their own HS.[/quote]

Ward 4 has McFarland MS, and two high schools, Coolidge and Roosevelt. 1100+ Ward 4 kids are in a feeder path to Deal right now, including Lafayette kids. If they all went to a Ward 4 MS and HS, it would look just look Deal and Wilson overnight, especially if that pulls in the Ward 4 students who are OOB for Deal and Wilson now.  The numbers are there to make it work.

The problem is, [b]no one wants to give it a try[/b].[/quote]

I don't think MacFarland has had a problem filling seats as it rolls out.  What's your problem with it?[/quote]

Me? Nothing. It isn't my boundary school. But why does it only have 69 students when deal has 1500?[/quote]
